Why did this near billionaire famous child end his life at 19 years old?

I did a Google search of a guy whose family was so rich, they got a school named after him.

His family was worth 900 millionaire dollars and he died during his first year of university after consuming at least 8 different drugs and medications at the same time. I would say this bizarre combination was intentional.

In China during the years 2008-2010, it was concluded 23.5% of the extremely wealthy will die by suicide at some point in their lives.

It's not uncommon for teens who were tightly controlled as children to go off the rails as adults once they get their freedom. The problem is until now they've largely been shielded against the consequences and so not learned from them.

At that age your brain isn't fully developed, especially the risk analysis part which is why there's a little peak in death rates at that age across all income bands. It's why your car insurance is high and employers don't trust you alone. It's nothing to do with being rich.

People take drugs/alcohol to hide from life's problems. It's easier to get through the day if your mind isn't in the same place. There could have been serious issues in his life so we shouldn't judge his mistake.

His family is probably involved in despicable criminal activity like slave trading and it weighed too heavily on his conscience so he opted out.

Some rich people neglect their children, I think that's one of the main reasons why they are using drugs and alcohol.

It's really sad when someone thinks that their work is more important than their family.
