The AIDS Drug Price Gouging CEO Allegedly Once Offered An Ex $10,000 To Go Down On Her Again
Death and Taxes – [T]hat’s the story according to a post titled “10k” that was published Tuesday to a personal blog written by “Katie,” the apparent ex-girlfriend of Turing Pharmaceuticals CEO and recently doxxed Internet Villain of the Week Martin Shkreli.
As for the details of the exchanges with Katie, one allegedly took place during February 2009 when Shkreli offered “to pay you 10k to eat you out.” Here’s the exchange, which she “copied and pasted from fb to gmail about a year ago,” Katie wrote in her post, “before this whole biotech big pharma price gouging scandal blew up.”
Sucks to be Martin Shrkeli. But you do shitty things that land you in the public eye and I guess every skeleton in your closet being unearthed is the price to pay. Here’s the message exchange “Katie” refers to:
I can’t say there’s anything surprising about a guy with a shady background who jacks up the price of a drug well beyond any reasonable profit margin being a creep in other aspects of his life. But at the same time, it takes a special kind of creep to offer an ex that much money for sex. I’d maybe be more understanding if it were some Indecent Proposal situation and it’s some new woman who got in his head and he had to have her and couldn’t. But this is a chick you’ve already been with, been there done that, and she’s not interested in doing back down that road so you go “Oh, well I’d pay you lol.” There’s something dehumanizing about that. And also incredibly illogical to me. Paying a chick you’ve already hooked up with for sex, especially just for oral sex, is insanity. That’s like buying back your old car years after you traded it in to the dealer then bringing it home, not even driving it, but sitting on the floor of your garage and licking the hubcaps. Almost a worse decision than the initial drug price raising.
Also obviously the money we spend is all relevant to what we have but jesus be less in touch with the common man, Martin. $10,000 to go down on a chick? That’s like super fancy “Hold your hand and act like she’s in love” hooker rates and you’re offering it to tongue away at some girl who hates you as the starting point in the negotiation? It’s crazy how someone this bad at business is so rich.
