Theranos former president found guilty on all fraud counts
Having read a lot about the whole Theranos matter I feel like Sunny really made some bad life decisions:<p>Imagine being in his shoes:  It's the early 2000s.  You're in China learning Mandarain, you're in your late 30s, you made $40 million selling your shares of your company in July 2000 shortly before it failed in the dot.com bust and you meet this 18 year old who you eventually have a romantic relationship with[3].  They did admit a romantic relationship in court documents, so this isn't making stuff up.  Life's big decisions confront you, and what do you end up doing?  Let's see how it worked out.  All this is on the Wikipedia page for Sunny[1]:<p>Fails:<p>- Divorce wife.<p>- Loan $13 million, no interest to Theranos.  [2]<p>- Become COO of biotech company even though you have no formal background in biotech.<p>- Waste many years of your life in fraudulent company.<p>- Be convicted of fraud, disgraced, and possibly spend years in prison.<p>- She throws you under the bus and testifies that her bad behavior at Theranos was largely the result of your abuse sexual and otherwise.  Jury doesn't believe it,  but her accusation is still out there.<p>- Have no kids, never remarry.  Holmes gets married and has a kid as she was awaiting her criminal trial.<p>Wins:<p>+ Have romantic relationship with beautiful lady in her 20s.<p>Anyway, there's some big life decisions here that, IMHO, Sunny made very poorly.<p>[1] <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunny_Balwani" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunny_Balwani</a><p>[2]<a href="https://stylecaster.com/sunny-balwani-net-worth/" rel="nofollow">https://stylecaster.com/sunny-balwani-net-worth/</a><p>[3]"Holmes and Balwani met for the first time in 2002. The pair initially met in Beijing, China, while on a language immersion program with Stanford University. Holmes was an 18-year-old high school senior at the time, whereas Balwani was a married, 37-year-old university student completing his MBA at the University of California, Berkeley. All in all, the pair had a 19 year age difference" <a href="https://stylecaster.com/elizabeth-holmes-sunny-balwani/" rel="nofollow">https://stylecaster.com/elizabeth-holmes-sunny-balwani/</a>
