if one is to make a fake persona, fast food and coke (the drink) probably won’t make top-100 list

I seem to recall the secret service was driven crazy by Bill Clinton going for a run out of the white house only to pick up a Big Mac at McDonald's.

Au contraire, larger-than-life people may desire to pass off as normal & common.

Or that's just what he feels. He also sleeps in a fairly normal home. Wouldn't he have a secret mega mansion if he was just putting on a show?

Berkshire Hathaway holds over 9% of Coca Cola's shares, worth $28 billion and returning over $800 million a year in dividend payments. Isn't that worth being seen visibly supporting Coca Cola products?

one thing is being visible, everyone is visible that is sponsoring a product in some way, e.g. athletes with gatorade. it is a whole other thing to accuse someone of creating a “fake persona” if he just wanted to “promote” coke there are many other ways this could be done (especially with virtually unlimited money for PR etc)
