I’ll assume that by normal, we’re referring to him not being wealthy. In that regard, I’d disagree. I think he’s a real narcissist, and even if he didn’t have all his wealth he’d still have similar issues, just on a much smaller scale. He wouldn’t have the large audience he currently enjoys, nor all the attention he gets without his money.
In other words, without his money we would just view him as another kook espousing whatever idea he happens to find interesting that day.
If he were a normal person, he would have learned the value of real work (out of necessity) and probably would be a much more grounded person.

I’m with you on this one. The money only feeds his narcissism, but that condition has always been with him.
