He may not have been an al ciada dude,his family may have been great mates with the Bush family when they were given a quick flight home after 9/11.... he may have suffered for his cause and been eliminated by Seals in Pakistan..... but don't worry, he wasn't happy and he's now in a sort of Davey Jones hell... er, apparently.... or maybe he's had extensive surgery and plays golf in Paraguay when Dubya drops down....
In 1957, John Paul Getty was the richest man in America. He was apparently a miser and purportedly when asked how much money it took for a man to be happy, answered "Just a little bit more". One must conclude the miserable miser was never happy.
This excerpt from Wiki is astounding about this miserable man:
Grandson's kidnapping
On July 10, 1973 in Rome, 16 year old John Paul Getty III was kidnapped and a ransom of $17 million was demanded over the phone for his safe return. However, "the family suspected a ploy by the rebellious teenager to extract money from his miserly grandfather."[17] John Paul Getty, Jr. asked his father for the money, but was refused.[18]
In November 1973 an envelope containing a lock of hair and a human ear was delivered to a daily newspaper. The second demand had been delayed three weeks by an Italian postal strike.[17] The demand threatened that Paul would be further mutilated unless $3.2 million was paid: "This is Paul’s ear. If we don’t get some money within 10 days, then the other ear will arrive. In other words, he will arrive in little bits."[17]
When the kidnappers finally reduced their demands to $3 million Getty senior agreed to pay no more than $2.2 million - the maximum that would be tax deductible. He loaned his son the remaining $800,000 at 4% interest. Paul III was found alive in southern Italy shortly after the ransom was paid. After his release Paul III called his grandfather to thank him for paying the ransom but Getty refused to come to the phone.[19] Nine people were later arrested for the kidnapping, but only two were convicted.[20] Paul III was permanently affected by the trauma and became a drug addict. After a stroke brought on by a cocktail of drugs and alcohol in 1981, Paul III was rendered speechless, nearly blind and partially paralyzed for the rest of his life. He died thirty years later on February 5, 2011 at the age of 54
