I saw a piece on him on TV last year. That man had the life! He had a sweet home studio where he did all his work, and never worked more than 4 hours a day. Everything would be couriered over to him, he'd do it, and send it back. He said he turned down 80% of the work that was sent to him, just because he had no need for more or to work harder.

Died young though...
