What a mother fucking legend

One of the richest men in Russia, Alisher Usmanov, has come forward as the anonymous buyer of James Watson’s Nobel medal, which was sold for more than $4 million at an auction at Christie’s in New York in 2014.

Watson sold it after being stripped of his career for pointing to data that proves IQ is linked to genetics and NOT only environment.
