Then again, money.

On the one hand, now you're famous for having a dick that doesn't work, on the other hand, $412 million.

You could write a Seinfeld episode around this.

The defendant fears that the news coverage of his case means that no woman would ever be interested in him again. Once the judgement and the payout is announced he finds himself being constantly approached by gorgeous women.

$412 million in actualized damages?

That’s international dynastic money over a penis.

No they did not give him 412 million dollars. They appealed the judgement and will fight it out for years. The man is 72 years old. Of that 412, most of it is punitive damages which will be fought over. Interest would acrue and if the clinic loses, they could be on the hook to pay $500 million+ but that's really very unrealistic.
