Henry's friend is a millionaire. He hates spending money.

Henry's friend(Jack) is a millionaire. He hates spending money.

Can it be possible from combining sentences above:

Henry's friend(Jack) is a millionaire despite his/him/Jack's hating spending money.

  

Top answer

Hating to spend money is not a barrier to being a millionaire. In fact, it may contribute to being a millionaire. So "despite" is not a logical word to express the relationship.
