The answer is "it depends". Some folks will care while others won't. It's just like the color of his pants, his age, the school he went to, and so on.
Note that whether he can incorporate is a matter of law and bankruptcy doesn't affect it. (Being the subject of a consent decree related to securities fraud does, but lots of folks go bankrupt without that.)
I would imagine that any value he gains from this is "balls". He went out there and did his part. Bravo. Success or failure: he did something. Some will value that.
