I corresponded a fair amount with Euro back in the day, but never met him. Pretty sure he had a brother (attorney?) in Austin, where I generally live. Unless I'm mixing him up with someone else (don't think so), he had a stint during that time (or maybe a bit before?) where his job was being a professional poker player in Taiwan. He knew numbers/probability extremely well, and apparently mostly made a living doing that for a bit. How long, I'm not sure. He was a great guy to exchange ideas with! Can't believe he's been gone so long. Damn it, life can be that way sometimes. True intellectual that lived a very eclectic, interesting life.
