Yes, he will cash out but I feel it will only be a fraction of what he hoped to get.

He will be comfortably rich but to someone who expected to be obscenely rich, he will see it as a failure.

To quote that great late 20th century philosopher, Terry Pratchett:

There is no justice in the world, there is Just Us. (and many of us are not nice people.)
