Because if he sold his soul, JMG says that the old lore hints at the seller having seven years to live it up before the devil takes his due. The notion that people have seven years seems really iffy to me though. I believe Marina Abramovic, her proteges Lady Gaga and Madonna, and a bunch of others in that circle have sold their souls to demons, yet they are all obviously still rich, famous, and alive. There is also the question of another film director, James Gunn, whom I believe to have sold his soul to a demon. He seems to be thriving despite being publicly disgraced a few years ago. Maybe they didn't sell their souls, or maybe it just takes longer than seven years, or maybe it's none of the above.
