I doubt he's ever felt like a real adult in his life, so making friends with kids was probably easier for him than relating with people in his own age group or older. That being said, he always was an incredibly strange individual, but its precisely because he's so strange that there were so many attempts to extort him financially throughout his life. When you A. hang out with kids all the time, B. have a reputation for eccentricity and C. Are worth more money than Fort Knox...yeah, your pretty much the biggest target on the planet in a legal sense for anyone who thinks they can get away with it.
