He could have cut the time needed to go broke in half.

Or a boat.

Buddy of mine has one. Says that next time, he's going to just dig a hole in his back yard and throw money into it...would be faster and cheaper.

he couldn't come up with $860,000 he owed to a jeweler ––

A normal, fiscally sane older person could just about retire on that amount--or at least invest it wisely.

AI--- Absolute Ignoramus--but oh well.

AI was released from Prison in Va. via the Governor’s pardon. He was in Georgetown within days on a full ride. never attended anything remotely near a class. Left school early to make the big bucks. Several arrests and many more arrests were “bought off”. His Posse pulled guns on another players Posse while at a 76ers practice. All should have gone to prison. He gets what he deserves. Nothing!

“Or a boat”. You got that one right. I live just a few miles from the Mississippi within sight of one of the main routes to a major boat ramp. I wish I had a fraction of the money I see going by on the weekend. I strap my kayak on top of the Jeep and go the other direction.
