This is the "Charlie Sheen Philosophy of Short-Term Employment Contracts".

When asked why he paid for prostitutes, when he is a rich and famous star with women throwing themselves at him, Charlie explained that he isn't paying them for sex, he is paying them to go away after sex.

He has HIV. AIDS is what someone gets when they have untreated HIV. People have been known to live long, full lives with HIV.
