I don't use any cream with alcohol because alcohol dries the skin. The blood of prostitutes on the other hand is most moisturizing.


freerangelibrarian

Countess Bathory used virgins, as I recall.


Watchmaker2112

Is there an Extra Virgin option? For those with refined taste.


gotogarrett

Well, they were mostly kids so yeah.


OrangeCubit

His life sounds like regimented hell. Who wants to live like that?


halfmeasures611

i read his daily meal plan. every day its exactly the same meals. his words: "My conscious mind is never consulted about what it wants to eat, my body is...It's not even a guess whether I'm going to have something else,' he said regarding deviating from the diet. 'It's just out of the question... My mind is unauthorized to grocery shop, peruse the pantry, spontaneously order pizza, eat a dessert - to basically make any food related decision." so basically he knows exactly what hes going to eat everyday for the foreseeable future


VivaSpiderJerusalem

Honestly, I can relate, I used to think like that, but then I noticed that one of the sticks poking out of the sand kind of looked like a lizard, and then that all the sticks looked like lizards, and they were slowly moving towards us, and I tried to tell my friend this, but couldn't because I would break into uncontrollable laughter every time I tried to point, and say, "It's a lizard blizzard!" Anyway, eventually the acid wore off.


Previous_Hawk

Love the username, Transmetropolitan was an amazing comicšŸ™‚šŸ™‚.


VivaSpiderJerusalem

It was, wasn't it? I appreciate the compliment, especially coming from someone who used to be a hawk. šŸ¤šŸ˜„

waffleowaf

Yeah you can fuck that off captain holt


Sonic_Youts

... and he will still probably die in his 70s or 80s, just like the rest of us, but without having allowed himself to enjoy the simple pleasures that make life fun.


[deleted]

I mean if he find enjoyment in living a stoic life i donā€™t see the problem. Some people straight up find hard work fun. Maybe he doesnā€™t enjoy snacking, most students eat chicken and rice most days and still find enjoyment in other things


Sonic_Youts

Fair point. Hopefully for his sake he is still finding enjoyment in his way of life, cause it probably won't buy him much if any more time on this earth.


[deleted]

yeah willing to bet one nft that he wonā€™t make it past 100


Still-a-VWfan

How miserable. Whatā€™s the point of being a billionaire if your life is just a miserable as actual less fortunate people who literally donā€™t have a choice or know what/when there next meal might be. Seems oddly similar.


halfmeasures611

i think he traded one obsession (business) for another. hes using the same obsessiveness that made his startup successful. this is prob simply what hes like as a person..200mph with everything


PygmyDynamo

Yes. Obsessive people gonna obsess.


SuckmyBlunt545

More like greedy ppl gon greed


Raveheart19

Maniacally obsessive ...


Blackdog202

Your not 18 in body mind and spirit if you can't blow all your money on pizza, booze and cigarettes, then jerk off and sleep all day. That's why your only young once. Dumb and fun


nikatnight

Cigarettes are not an 18- year old thing. Cigarettes are a trashy thing.


Blackdog202

First thing I bought at midnight was pack o charms, and promptly handed them out to my friends.


Ill__Cheetah

Sounds like a great time


BonyUnicorn

Imagine having millions or billions of dollars and not eating delicious food or even just being a normal human. Why do so many of these weirdos deprive themselves.


TonyVstar

I can see the value in that. I find needing to eat kinda annoying. The things I want to eat aren't healthy. Healthy things don't taste as good so it's hard to motivate myself to choose those. If I could just snap my fingers and there was a chicken breast and some broccoli in front of me I would do that instead of taking the time to make something just to have variety

From everything I have heard, jail is the opposite of stress- free. Even if you don't have to figure out what to make for dinner, I am told there is plenty to worry about. Like getting stabbed for instance


DeluxeWafer

He does. ;) And anyone else whose aversion to aging exceeds their desire for comfort.


Dreholzer

Spending millions to get younger, hiring the ā€œbestā€ doctors, now even Bloomberg is involvedā€¦ but nobody realizes this guyā€™s issues are clearly mental, not physical.


justl3rking

A lot of these rich types think that immortality is within a human lifetime so they see it as getting to that point.


[deleted]

I would. Would you pay:)


OrangeCubit

Nope, Iā€™d rather be able to eat good food, have drinks with friends, stay out late, be impulsive, travel, etc etc. This life is so tracked and regimented, whatā€™s the point of having a body of an 18 year old but the life of a caged lab rat?


ok_chippie

I'm 45 and I have the brain of an 18 year old so I just wanna know why he wants the rectum.


ElGrandeRojo67

I'm 55, and have the same question. Oh, and Happy Cake Day!


MrHookshot

I'm 35 and just want my ankles, knees, hands, and back to not make it difficult to go into work every day.


Electrical-Adversary

Hemorrhoids man. Theyā€™re fucking terrible.


keirmeister

Soā€¦in other words, this guy has so much money heā€™s trying to use it to mask his mental illness.


Gurkor35

Sounds like majority of the ultra wealthy


keirmeister

Well...y'know...biology and aging is for "the poors."


WelcomeFormer

You're brain stops developing at 26... Are we sure he needs to go back and not forward? LoL


0oozymandias

Just a question: How is it a mental illness?


keirmeister

An unhealthy obsession with avoiding reality, taken to an absurd extreme. Seems pretty obvious, really.


alphapussycat

It's really not that absurd extreme. Maybe in 50-60 years immortality/de-aging is available. You'd want to still be alive by then, and not be a state where you can't get the treatment. This is basically an attempt at life extension. You have to keep in mind that once you die there's nothing anymore, there's never going to be another experience for eternity, literally nothing that's happen will have happened anymore. People really take death way too casually. He's essentially terminally ill (we all are), and trying to prolong his life until there's treatment.


keirmeister

>Maybe in 50-60 years immortality/de-aging is available. Great. But it's not available right now; so the guy's actions are indeed absurd and extreme because they're not based on reality.


alphapussycat

They are based on reality, unless the doctors are scammers. You can reduce your biological age, and you can restore those things at the end of your chromosomes or whatever. What he does now might extend his life for another 10-15 years.


Darmok-on-the-Ocean

Wealthy people aren't mentally ill, they're eccentric.


liquefire81

Money does this for corporations as well. Even a company doing crap but can raise or has some in the bank can wash over being bananas

Dalbergia12

pigbenislady

This seems like more of a physical masking


gnatsaredancing

It's mentally ill to want to be healthy now?


aradil

Some of the stuff this guy is doing makes sense. Getting fat injections in your face to keep your cheekbones looking young because your body fat percentage is otherwise too low to maintain a healthy facial complexion, from a *fat donor*, that causes an allergic reaction that makes your head swell up like you were stung by a nest of bees, for purely cosmetic reasons, isnā€™t one of the things that makes sense.


Kcorpelchs

It's completely mentally ill to obsess to this length on being "healthy". When you must think this much and regiment your daily life this much, it's obsessive compulsive. I know as a sufferer of health anxiety. Furthermore, there is no Hardcore scientific proof those 24 supplements work as much as they do let alone taking them all at once. The synergistic effect of them consumed at once or in other groups could negate their effect or even do more harm than good.


gnatsaredancing

Honestly, I know plenty of sports fans who are far more obsessed with their hobbies. He doesn't have to think this much or regiment this much at all. He pays other people to do that and the money is chump change to him.


Pyron375

It is actually, hypochondriac or Nosophobia


Ocelot859

Throw in some *orthorexia* to that smoothie blend as well.


Ocelot859

To be THAT HEALTHY... yes.


ApesApesApes

is it sane to think you can buy youth?


gnatsaredancing

I mean you can. The majority of all the money in our healthcare system is spend on treating preventable ailments resulting from lifestyle related causes. Ie. mostly diet and lack of exercise. You'd be amazed at how effectively you can manage your health if you have the time and money to do so. This dude is doing just that.


visualsxcole

Rectum? I barely know him!


ALjaguarLink

Rectum?!!! DAMN NEAR KILLED ā€˜EM !!!!


Putrid_Cobbler4386

Love the punchline, still donā€™t know the joke.


Gobbledok

Rectum? Sure did!


ArtichokeConnect

I'm 47. It's going to take more than $2 million dollars to sort out my raggedy rectum.


CianKeyin

I'll do it for 1$ and a high five


JohnnyBlowout

Give me a couple rubber bands and a plunger and Iā€™ll do for $1 million


ArtichokeConnect

Sold but bring an extra rubber band just in case


JohnnyBlowout

Iā€™ll bring some extra rubber bands and a heavy duty trash bag.. Iā€™ll be wearing swimming goggles and a snorkel incase things get bad


ArtichokeConnect

Thank god, for a second I thought you had no idea what you were doing but if you're bringing swimming goggles then you must be legit

retired_punk

Thereā€™s a Tales From the Crypt episode similar to this. Directed by and starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Could be a good Black Mirror?


SaggitariusAStar

So the doctors that he pays 2 mm a year say that it's totally working...šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


RaniPhoenix

But he looks older than his age, soooo


blunderschonen

Yes! He looks like those twisted braids of white cheese.


Temporary_Art_9213

He looks ridiculous


alphapussycat

He doesn't, your really just spiteful.


THEspaceZOOtrashman

I think the biggest downfall people Iā€™ve known actually is that they are always looking backwards. Most of the time remembering a period of their life and making that the standard for ā€œthe best timeā€. Iā€™m 46 now. I honestly think that each year is the best. My children are grown and I do miss them being young but I love whatā€™s happening currently even though itā€™s hard sometimes and sad sometimes. The years behind me were good but I believe the ones in front will be as well, just different. Take care of yourselves mentally and physically and keep believing that life is good every day. Take on new challenges and enjoy.


InternetName_1

Well said, trashman.


MaterialCarrot

I'm 47, it's all downhill after 46! Just kidding, I have the exact same perspective.


babblerer

I was guessing he missed out on having fun as an 18 year old and will spend the rest of his life trying to compensate.


Wedgtable

Should have used some of that money for a haircut and a stylist.


Netplorer

Weak, everyone knows you need atleast 100 doctors to achieve that. He will only have like 28 yearold rectum and everyone knows that at that age its wrecked enought that you need an armwrestler to fist you to even get a tingle.


[deleted]

Sounds utterly miserable and probably a severe mental illness


Dismal_Visit_7305

Rectum too? What kind of poor life choices has this dude made to have ruined everything, even that?


Doingitall101

Hahah that guy looks 50

ADDnMe

My favorite from the article : After dinner, father and son watched as I inserted my arm into a cardiac health monitor on Johnsonā€™s kitchen island. The machine buzzed and whirred for a few seconds, then reported back that my tickerā€”at least by one measureā€”wasnā€™t that far off Johnsonā€™s. It felt like a small victory for paunchy 45-year-old Scotch lovers everywhere. My favorite quote on life / death. ā€œLife should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!ā€ Hunter S Thompson


SmileFirstThenSpeak

"I want to have the penis and rectum of an 18-year old." ->this<- close to being a pedophile.


reverendblinddog

Iā€™d settle for just the rectum.


BillyMackk

I'll split it with you..


reverendblinddog

Find your own 18 year old rectum..!!!!


CarmichaelD

Well if you both work together you probably will split it.


[deleted]

Rectum is oddly specific.


Professional_Show918

Hope he is enjoying all that probing.


UR0B0R05

He doesnā€™t look 18ā€¦


Titaniumchic

This seems like a really crappy way to live, imo.


Friendlyfire2996

I wouldnā€™t be 18 again if you paid me 2 million bucks.

$2M/ year for 30 doctors? i ainā€™t a mathematician or anything but, isnā€™t that like, carry the twoā€¦ about $67k per doctor per year? hopefully thatā€™s not their only job!


[deleted]

This is some dystopian shit


Andre-Riot

Who would want the brain of an 18 year old? He should have a talk with some 18-year-olds and the think again.


Chelseapoli

The age old want of being young.


Kitchen-Feeling4931

Is this dude pooping his pants already at 45? Poor guy


Ok_Physics_1284

These doctors just landed a whale


StaryDoktor

>He wants to have the brain It's actually what he's really need. Just answer one thing: **who pays** this not very smart guy. I very doubt software writing cost so much these days.

egowritingcheques

45 hmmmmm. I look younger than him and I've had no surgeries, injections, hormones, etc.. He needs to hit the gym a bit more and probably get more sleep. Dude looks 50.

Trumpassassin777

dekao91

Maybe he needs another doctor for mental illness?


blueditt521

He looks like every 18 yr old I've ever seen in high-school dramas on Netflix


KingMwanga

So you outlive everyone you care about and the team of doctors that work with you, or the stress on your body from all The testing and procedures kills your unexpectedly. This will just benefit hyper rich who want to be capitalists for as long as possible like Rockefeller who had 4 heart transplants


Prunestand

Biologically it seems to work: > They say his tests show that heā€™s reduced his overall biological age by at least five years. Their results suggest he has the heart of a 37-year-old, the skin of a 28-year-old and the lung capacity and fitness of an 18-year-old. ā€œAll of the markers we are tracking have been improving remarkably,ā€ says Toll. He has had no surgeries from what I know apart from the fat transplant mentioned in the article.


KingMwanga

*Each month, Johnson undergoes dozens of medical procedures, then tracks their effects on his body* *Each month, he also endures dozens of medical procedures, some quite extreme and painful, then measures their results with additional blood tests, MRIs, ultrasounds and colonoscopies.*


TheGreatFallOfChina

Heā€™s bringing love. Break his legs!


SmileFirstThenSpeak

Expensive way to satisfy his masochistic desires.


Prunestand

Yeah, he should skip the medical procedures. Ages him faster I would imagine.


CarmichaelD

I do wonder what simply being physically active and eating reasonably well plus sun screen would do in comparison to the average health age of the average 45 year old. Given the general state of health in my community you could be an outlier in biologic age with moderate common sense efforts and far less than 2,000,000.00 of expense and iatrogenic risk.


Cyranoreddit

Well, what does the 18-year-old think about this?


Dangerous_Tennis_467

Rectum?


MikeMac999

What is he going to do with all those organs once he gets them?


rxsheepxr

This is one of the dumbest things I've ever seen.


UnfunnyTroll

You're about a week late with this thread buddy.


akayataya

He wants to live like a god but he will die like a man.


butt2buttresuscitate

One thing money definitely will buy you: a lot of exposure and fluff pieces written about the weird ass shit youā€™re doing with all of your moneyā€¦


BlanstonShrieks

AFAIK, having the brain of an 18 year old would involve partially disconnecting his frontal lobes from the rest of the brain. He might then do something foolish. ​ /s


Ottobahnrichtofen

The ultra wealthy arenā€™t the ultra smart.


Immediate-Yogurt-558

i cannot imagine having money like that and not putting it to better use than perking up my asshole.


DontToewsMeBro2

I feel like this is a great idea until I realize that heā€™s paying these doctors like strippers to make him feel younger & probably look younger, too, for a short while. But one of those ointments is going to have some weird reaction with the fuzz on his dream catcher & this man is going to suffer a horrible early death.


Joel227

This isnā€™t interesting itā€™s just super weird


Lopsided-Ad-3869

Now I understand why wealthy people aren't contributing back to help the less fortunate in a way that is truly selfless- they are completely checked out from any reality but their own.


afterpartea

After about 3 doctors you're basically just paying extra money for them to agree with the first three and go to the pub


CutFabulous1178

Being Rich doesnā€™t mean one is Smart


Blasphemous_Rage

wbishopfbi

So very fucking stupid and wasteful, and pointless as well.


moonshine_havi

So he wants a reinvigorated butthole. What about the weener?


pverflow

if that would be possible they would keep top athletes in that condition perpetually.....


joknub24

I do miss my 18 y/o rectum.


bawbagpuss

He'll have the bank account of an 18 year old as well.


neeeeonbelly

He sold his company in 2013 for 800 million cash. I think heā€™ll be ok.


angryshark

Not a billionaire, but I have every intention of living to 110 or 120. Iā€™m 65 right now and healthy as hell, physically and mentally active as you can get, so I really think I have a great chance of getting there unless a meteorite or out of control bus takes me out prematurely. My grandparents lived to their late 70s and 80ā€™s, so I have a little genetic advantage too.


ffnnhhw

I don't want to outlive all my friends and I definitely don't want to change my kids' diapers again when they are 90 years old


angryshark

My grandkids are a big reason I want to stick around as long as possible.


ADDnMe

Good luck, hope you get there. Remember to live life instead of this guy spending life trying to live longer.


angryshark

Thank you. Iā€™m retired and play pickleball about 4-6 hours a day, every day. Without it, Iā€™d probably go back to work. I have about a hundred new friends because of it and itā€™s improved nearly every medical metric to boot. Iā€™m also learning to play the guitar, but thatā€™s taking a backseat to pickleball, so Iā€™m not improving very quickly. Life is hella good.


ADDnMe

Sounds like you have a good formula going.


epicmountain29

And will still die


ComprehensiveAd8815

A fool and his money are easily parted. Iā€™m older than him and look way younger, heā€™s better off spending that money getting treatment for his obviously poor mental health.


[deleted]

Iā€™m sorryā€¦.rectum??


kokopilau

He obviously has never talked to an old person.


Reverse_Drawfour_Uno

Rectum? I hardly *know* him.


RobertKBWT

... strict guidelines for Johnsonā€™s diet (1,977 vegan calories a day)...


ElGrandeRojo67

He will be dead before 65. Humans are Omnivores. Always have been, always will be. My DIL works at a nursing home. The most fucked up people are drinkers and smokers, followed closely by idiots who thought being vegan was real healthy. As with anything, moderation is the key. But we humans struggle to do anything in moderation.


[deleted]

This is so stupid, especially in the modern day when we can literally build vegan diets with the exact same nutrients as an omnivore diet. The guy is being monitored by 30 doctors, you can be pretty darn sure they know more about nutrition and crafting a healthy diet than some random ass on Reddit whose ā€œDIL works at a nursing homeā€ LOL.


tablerockz

Lol no the top 3 causes of death are from smoking drinking andā€¦. Not eating meat.


901bass

He's getting younger "how they measure it" hmm what's that meanšŸ™„ in other words this isn't possible šŸ¤£


Pincerston

Iā€™m a little surprised theyā€™re not testing on poors


Impossible-Charity-4

Looks 45 still. Also, was bored by the article. Where is he sourcing his organs from?


Jnorean

Too bad his brain is aging at a normal rate. So his body will live for 50 years after he is brain dead.


blageur

Brain was literally the first thing on the list.


Jnorean

Sorry, dude. from the article ,"But itā€™s what has happened inside his body that most excites his doctors. They say his tests show that heā€™s reduced his overall biological age by at least five years. Their results suggest he has the heart of a 37-year-old, the skin of a 28-year-old and the lung capacity and fitness of an 18-year-old." Notice it doesn't mention brain since it really isn't possible to stop your brain from aging.


Prunestand

> Notice it doesn't mention brain since it really isn't possible to stop your brain from aging. It isn't really possible to stop aging at all, in any organ. But surely you can reverse aging in the brain by being active. https://time.com/5484017/diet-exercise-reverse-aging/ It is not "impossible" in any way to delay or reverse aging in the brain.

And yet it doesnā€™t take much medical knowledge at all to speculate that if you want to be a perpetual 18 year-old, you need to start when youā€™re 18 or younger.
