the first slightest sign that the millions he spends can't stop time.

I'm some years older than he is. One day I had an experience that made me think of the idiom "I know __________ like the back of my hand." I was in my kitchen chopping away on the chopping board . The light in that part of my kitchen is surprisingly bright. When I looked down - for the first time I noticed that there was a noticeably older network of tiny wrinkles on the back of my hand when my fingers were splayed out. In the years since then - I've gotten some tiny, faint liver spots. None of that is surprising. That's aging and - shocker(!) - your body systemically gets older.

Typically vain people have plastic surgery or do procedures on the certain parts of their body and in particular on their face. But he's probably checking every inch of his body every day for any tiny "flaw". What is he going to do when all his millions have failed to stop what I happened to notice on the back of my hand that day? I wonder if in his 60s or 70s he'll die due to his own insane vanity. For example - I can imagine him having a crazy and highly dangerous number of Botox injections on at a similarly crazy and highly dangerous frequency.
