Disgraced pharmacy CEO will let you punch him in the face
Quote:
Martin Shkreli, the former pharmaceutical CEO who angered the world when he raised the price of an HIV medication by a shocking amount, is auctioning off the chance to punch him in the face.
The 33-year-old businessman is trying to raise money to support the young son of a friend who passed away.
Martin is letting people send him direct messages on Twitter to bid on the chance to punch or slap him in the face. He claims to have a bid as high as $78,000 already.
Some people online are even thinking about starting a crowdfund page to have a professional boxer do the honors as Martin says the winner can pick someone else to deliver the punch.

I will auction one slap/punch in the face to benefit my friend Mike who passed away & leaves behind a young son who survived cancer. DM bids

So far the two highest bidders to punch or slap me in the face are for $78,000 and $25,500. Let me know!
As vile as he seems i figure "his friend who passed away" is a metaphor for his lost job as a CEO and the "left behind young son who survived cancer" stands for his bank account which has already gone into the red.
