Jonathon Kennedy

&nbsp Jonathan Kennedy (-105 to +23) was an American businessman who was a multi-billionaire at the time of his death.

EDUCATION

Kennedy was a graduate of California-Berkeley in North America, though it is suggested by those who knew Kennedy that the school admitted him after his father donated a large sum anonymously (and that that sum had not been enough to secure an Ivy League admission).

Kennedy did well, doing a double major in biochemistry and finance.

BUSINESS

Kennedy used his inheritance to purchase a down-and-out chemical corporation, using his money to renovate it. The company, East Coast Pharmaceuticals, was successful, and was later used as a holding company by Kennedy for other investments (some say for money laundering).

FORTUNE

Though ECP was successful, Kennedy rapidly took his initial twelve million investment and turned it into hundreds of millions, clearly beyond the gross income of East Coast Pharmaceuticals. It is known that a substantial portion of his fortune came through his development of designer drugs that were then sold on the black market or in regions (such as Africa) where law enforcement was lax. Among these drugs were Crave, Blink, and 'The Glow Pill'.

TITLE

Kennedy was knighted by the King of Norway after the Collapse. Some believe the purchase price of his title was near $250 million (roughly 350 million credits in modern currency).

DEATH

Kennedy died, age 128, of a drug overdose though the coroner couldn't conclusively determine whether the cause of death was a medical drug or if Kennedy was experimenting with custom drugs in the hopes of further extending middle age, leaving his estate to his only known child, his daughter, Maria.
