We need Costco and Sam's to bulk-buy these in the same way they shoot political books up the charts. Get some money in our boy's pocket.
Tilman bought a company I worked for and helped build from the ground up. Company quickly tanked. I shut up and quit
Shut up and listen and buy my book and keep me rich. If Tillman really thought that this advice was golden he would make his kids change their name and take their chances. But he doesn't because he knows this guide to success is bullshit. You can try to maximize your chances, but at the end of the day life's lottery is the ultimate determinant.
"I know it was you, Morey, calling me cheap. You broke my heart. You broke my heart!" ―Don Fertitta Corleone[src]
Now he's not my favorite person to own the Rockets but this is really silly. He's a self made man along with most of the wealthiest people in America. Maybe some kids of Sam Walton and the Mars family but most the powerhouses in wealth and business are self made. Sounds like sour grapes. If his kid bought the Rockets then yes, I would agree, but he is a self made man that built a pretty large and substantial business. No lottery there.
That is correct and Factual. He is a self-made billionaire and became a billionaire by buying chain restaurants and then cost-cutting and chopping heads to become the most success restaurantauers in the history of the world. too bad he's using the same tatic that made him a billionaire with the Rocket organizaiton https://bleacherreport.com/articles...calls-reporter-a-fraud-after-budget-cut-tweet Per Yossi Gozlan of USA Today, general manager Daryl Morey has managed to drop the team's payroll from $135.41 million before the start of this season to $122.855 million after the Feb. 7 trade deadline. Their tax bill is a reasonable $12 million, compared to the $21 million it was going to be before the season started. In September, after Tim Bontemps of the Washington Post wrote an article asking if the Rockets were going to start tightening their purse strings, Fertitta seemed baffled by the suggestion. “Why would anyone think that?” Fertitta asked SB Nation's Steven Godfrey. “Why?” https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...a-costly-mistake-in-their-pursuit-of-a-title/
Don Fredo Fertitta is a self made billionaire because: https://www.forbes.com/sites/calebm...a-secret-its-not-about-the-food/#3bb0ad8ddf9c The World's Richest Restaurateur Has A Secret: It's Not About The Food "When I ask the 55-year-old to tell me about how he got started, he admonishes me in his thick Texas twang: "I've overread that story. I just hate to go that far back." So we don't, for now, because as Fertitta later tells me, laughing, "I do whatever the f--k I want." Most of the time Fertitta, the 100% owner of Landry's, wants to gobble up hospitality businesses: specifically, poorly managed, out-of-date and distressed restaurants, hotels, casinos and boardwalks that he can buy on the cheap, often right out of bankruptcy court. Fertitta then cleans house. He fires top executives, closes failing locations, revamps existing ones and moves management to Landry's headquarters in Houston, where he can keep an eye on everyone. "When we buy somebody, we cut the head off," he says" Mediocre food, it turns out, pays. FORBES estimates that Fertitta, who also owns a Rolls-Royce and Bentley dealership, is worth $1.5 billion, Just like he said, "SHUT UP AND LISTEN"
While you're right in saying "most" of the wealthiest are self-made, 35%-45% got theirs by inheriting. Pretty high percentage.
Tilman should create an ownership group with Chinese billionaires, then he wouldn't be constantly broke and we'd probably be paying the lux tax every year that we're actually competing. Plus, red is easy to sell in China and we're already an well established brand in China.
