Except for that time he almost burned down his neighbor's house

OK, I mean all geniuses are a little bit unhinged. In fourth grade the budding entrepreneur was apparently making money by collecting copper scraps for cash. When he noticed his neighbor's chicken shack had a little extra metal attached, he tried to burn it off, and, well, it did not end well. "My parents were really upset," he told Forbes.

Still a less insane move than walking barefoot in Manhattan, so I think he's good.
