Success in some areas of your life does not insulate you from tragedy. The guy still puts his jeans on one leg at a time. Probably very expensive jeans he throws away after one use...but still. The human condition cannot be escaped.

This includes his family and the family of those involved in the affair. Many lives were turned upside down.

The guy has enough money to buy an island in French Polynesia and never leave it for the rest of his life. You are correct he is still human, but he can do pretty well at making a new life for himself where he doesnt have to ever think the word Nvidia again.

In 10 years he will have a new family and new friends and this will be a distant memory for him.

It isn't the tragic human condition to have affairs. It's a choice he made with his free will. There is no need for apologia; he could simply have not done it.

Humans being fallible and not being able to resist our urges is indeed part of the human condition.
