So they want thia guy to invest hundreds of millions of dollars, risking it all, and getting only dividends back and no control at all? Doesn’t sound like the way he got to be a billionaire.

Slim chance that these slim pickin’s will appreciate in value and turn around the situation.

Sort of like putting your water into a bucket with a hole in the bottom.
