What does consistently having millions of dollars prove? He sucks at owning a business but knows how to play the game to build and keep what he has. If he went dead broke I think that'd be a good sign of him being bad with money.

If you got the goddamn steak and the best view you’re good with money. Poor means you can’t do ****. Rich means you can. There aren’t any other rules.

Hasn't he been in continuous bone crushing debt since the 80s though? He's basically as good as any get rich quick scheme moron if they had the family connections to continually fail upwards rather than just be as broke as the rest of them all the time.

Goddamn dude. Who cares if you’re in debt if you’re eating the best goddamn steak?

I'm not saying he isn't successful, I'm saying he doesn't know how to run a business. If he did he wouldn't have to fall back on desperate bull****ery in the face of imminent economic collapse.

The only point of the business is so you can eat the goddamn steak.

I’m starting to worry about you.

But without being born into a super ****ing rich family he wouldn't be eating that steak. Even being born into a kinda sorta rich family who still worries about their invitations to prestige charity events probably would have left him destitute.

You have some nice big ideas but your analytical abilities are sometimes Trumpean.
