It's not nonsense, it's satire. I was laughing most of the way through both of these articles.

The Rockefeller one literally points out that the guy did all this weird stuff and then his son, who didn't, outlived him.

Oh, I admit that I didn't finish the Rockefeller article, since it looked like more of the same. I can see now how it's satire.

Honestly though, I'm still not sure what the point of the vampires one is. Satire relies on the reader drawing some conclusions that aren't laid out, and I don't really see where it's trying to lead me in that respect. Is it that these billionaires are fools for following bunk research?
