I have a family member like this, the kind that refused to take time off or keep tabs on his health. Sure, he was fine until he reached his mid 60s and now his body is falling apart and his family contantly have to worry if he's okay because he'll lie about being healthy and refuses to stop working even though he's rich and has a TON of paid leave he could take. These guys who play stoic are so frustrating because they think they're being strong for their family but really they cause everyone a lot of grief when they get sick from things they could have prevented by having regular check ups instead if pretending to be strong.
Things this guy sucks at:
1.Driving
2.Security
3.Looking after his health
4.Not being a tool
5.Being a decent person
6.Anything I missed

It's just ego at the end of the day.
