Peter Thiel would make an excellent Bond villain. You can feel empathy for him for being genuinely wronged and at the same time be disgusted by how he's harmed others in the pursuit of his private justice. He should never be underestimated and just when you think you've found a weakness he can expose it as a secret strength. If he weren't using his tremendous skills for so much ill in the world he'd be extremely admirable and hard not to cite as a role model.
