What can we do to help? If everybody in the US sent him a dollar, we could restore almost all of what he lost, at almost no cost to any single individual.

What do ya say?

Thanks for the news. Guess I should've programmed a limit order on this one.

Glad I have Bitcoin and Blackberry to buoy me.

Almost everything written about McMahon says he is a super prick. A great businessman and a terrible human being.

Aren't most of them?

1) The middle class didn't eat itself.
2) The govt. didn't corrupt itself.
3) ...
4) Prophet.

But both groups did allow it to happen. So they did play some part.

Who cares how much of his fortune he lost? He's too big to fail. Even if he lost all of it he can take his private jet down to BrainWashington with a tin cup in his hand and ask for a handout to the tune of Billions. Can they fit a tin cup that big on a private jet? If not maybe he can get himself an Airbus A380.

I know , I know. We've been over this too big to fail thing before. And I was told the economy would have collapsed if the gov't didn't capitulate to the demands of failing businessmen. I was also once told there would be no maths though, and I remain yet unconVinced on both counts.

He hasn't lost it unless he inexplicably decides to ditch his stock right now, which he obviously won't do.

They do?

Never got that impression.

Nobody in his right mind thinks it's a "sin" to be rich. To be rich through the use of con artistry and corruption though...well let's just say...there ought to be a law! I've got nothing against a man that sees an opportunity, a demand for something and supplies that demand as long as no one gets hurt unwillingly (thinking of drugs here and also cracked skulls due to sports...where to draw the line? well that's off topic in OT. A topic for a different thread maybe...) Now where was I before I went on this opposite over adjacent? Oh yeah, I've got nothing against someone who sees a demand and gets rich off of it, but if he fails and goes to BrainWashington with a tin cup I remain uncon
artist
Vinced they should get a dime of taxpayer money from a Gov't up to their eyeballs in debt. Unless, of course the Gov't is running a con of it's own to the benefit of it's own people, and that Gov't is ours...:whiste:

actually he is a pretty good person. well when not in a business deal with him.

He has for years he had WWE support the troops overseas. They also sponsor many different organizations to help the troops when they come back home. not to mention all the community stuff they do and the huge involvement with "make a wish".

also recently they are supporting USA wrestling.


yes its the WWE and not in his name. but he owns it and even in books wrestlers have written they have said how much he gives and encourages them to help also.

He didn't lose money, he lost current worth. He could just as easily be worth even more tomorrow than he was yesterday.
