Self fund does not usually equate to literally buying your way into a team.
He's basically an arrogant prick who thinks he's better than he actually is. Caused loads of crashes, insulted people, abandonded his family to sleep in an altitude tent as a 2nd cat and there are the rumours that his city boy dealers didn't just offer up coke.... He threw loads of money obsessing over absolutely everything to become good enough to pay to ride as a domestique in chipper pro races.
