My problem with Jack

We all know a billionaire even an ugly one would have every young bimbo hanging all over him. No way he would be alone at that concert.

They sort of addressed that.

He had some kind of hangup about relationships and avoided them.

However, I agree that it would be pretty unusual. He's supposed to be very famous and girls would be magnetically drawn to him. If he's staying in an open tent, come on!

Agreed, very unusual. Mark for Bridget (1st movie, and the story) was unusual but thanks to Helen (book's author) and Sharon (movie director) I for one have a great movie and I love it dearly. Daniel was a bad guy so his story with Bridget was different. But Jack? He is so nice, he can be Mark, so why they made him I don't know.

I dunno. There are plenty of billionaires in this world. I'm not sure I'd recognise half of them and if he wanted to be alone he'd make it happen.

You may not recognize them but. believe there are women groupies out there that make a career choice to follow these people. Its sick I know.

I'm pretty sure not all have groupies lol.

They may not all have groupies but given his physical appearance, wealth and high visibility, the odds are he did.

Not necessarily lol. It's up to that person. He wanted to be alone he made himself thus.

...more likely than not...Mark Zuckerberg had groupies in college(and he's no box of chocolates)

Whether he did or not he'd choose whether he'd want them around or not lol.
Also looks are extremely subjective.

Stevie Wonder would have opted for "the looker"...please...it's not like Zucky wasn't known for his personality!

I literally have no idea what you're talking about.
It's possible for rich people to be alone. John Madjeski is extremely famous in my town (he has a football stadium named after himself) yet he is often seen alone wandering about. No posse, no one follows him etc.
George Clooney goes into my parents local all the time. He's ignored. It's possible.
Also have you been to a festival like Glastonbury? It's attended by hundreds of celebs and are mostly left alone. Why because there's so many people about you're not exactly looking about for some old guy who wrote a book.

Yes, blame women for that too

and by the way, it didn't appear that this billionaire made any effort to segregate himself at the festival attended by tens of thousands of people as well as his appearance at the television station...no bodyguards, no posse....
