I worked at the desk at several big hospitals and some of the doctors were narcissistic. It didn't seem to affect their patients, but it affected their working relationships with the nurses and even each other. I had no respect for them and would never recommend them even though they were highly skilled. Sometimes the nurses would screw things up for them to get back at them.

My former neighbor is basically unemployable. He was a stay at home dad for 10 years and after his wife kicked him out and got a restraining order, he couldn't find a job. He got hired as a substitute teacher, but got fired from that because, well I can only speculate, but he said it was because he supported a particular candidate. I doubt that was the reason

Interact with them as little as possible. Most of them don't converse with you they simply tell you! Afterall, THEY know!

Easily recognizable, they are never in the wrong, someone else is always to blame, their own behavior is always good and right. Additionally, they do not feel remorse.
I know one - can't disclose name here.

Divorce him. As quickly as possible. Don't be naive and foolish as I was and think he will grow up or just needs love. They are toxic.

Oh yeah, Former husband. As OP said, business exec.
He hated if he thought someone was laughing at him. That made him furious!
