An Interview With Martin Shkreli

This made me rethink my opinion of him. He is still a ruthless businessman but if what he says here is true he was really misrepresented in the media.

I so dislike this guy...

 

Its unbelievable how these business peoples vocabulary is full of UM UM UM UM UM.. just like tr-UM-p ..

 

Weirdo

 

I agree with you op, interesting piece.

 

For those interested but haven't watched the vid, he states that his company sells the medication for $1 a pill to the government but $750 to companies such as Wal-Mart and Exxon Mobil (his exact reason is "Because, fuck them. Why shouldn't they have to pay full price?". Also, if you can't afford the medication, contact him and he will set you up for free.

If true, it's certainly a game changer. (I do know that if I were him, I would have taken the "Dr. Evil" thing a hell of a lot further)

 

I didn't watch the interview but in response to this, most pharmaceutical manufacturers do offer coupons. The problem is most people with low incomes have no idea how to access this resource.
