Billionaire Roku Founder Anthony Wood Has Quadrupled His Net Worth This Year

This plan to cater to advertisers is an old plan of Wood’s. And it was born out of failure.

And one of his slightly less questionable investments is with the Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine, which is collecting as much human urine as it can get into jars in order to test the effectiveness of mass spectrometer analysis of urine to detect the individual’s likelihood of contracting various diseases, a breakthrough that could supposedly have real positive results in preventative medical treatment....
