Ben Pasternak, an Australian entrepreneur who dropped out of school at 15 and became a teen prodigy in Silicon Valley, founded a successful vegan chicken company that was sold for $50 million.

The vegan company was well-received, but his post-sale ventures have been marred by legal and financial failures.
