I was fortunate to meet him in 2007 at a local futurist meetup. I think you could say he is the epitome of "success through persistence". He's always been good at what he did, but if you go back 10, 20 years you wouldn't normally expect the level of success today to be reachable by his foundation, given how much negative skepticism there has always been around the research.
- nradov 7y agoBut he hasn't actually achieved any success yet. So the negative skepticism is warranted.
- maxander 7y agoWell, yes, in that no one has lived forever yet. :) But that he has established a substantial research foundation and normalized a subject that was virtually fringe science a few decades ago is tremendous success in itself.
- Nuzzerino 7y agoYeah, this is what I was referring to, thanks for clarifying!
