oblong Posted October 17 Posted October 17 JB is worth $3.4B. Those winnings proportionally speaking, would be like a person worth $500K winning $800. 15 years ago I won $300 on a slot machine in Windsor. Our rich uncle got us “free” tickets to see a rat pack tribute show and it included dinner. I figured for all that I could put $20 (Canadian) into the slots. On one of the first few pulls I won. Immediately Cashed out. Bought a drink for the wife and I and saw a great show. It didn’t make the news. our rich uncle eventually passed with very little to his name. The casino knew how.to make an old polish man who never married or had kids and spent his life taking care of his turn of the century immigrant parents and later on his widowed older sister feel important. But it made him happy. Quote

Motown Bombers Posted October 17 Posted October 17 MAGA acts like they uncovered a scandal when Pritzker reported his winnings on his tax filings and made those public. He’s not even trying to hide it. He also said he’s donating the winnings to charity. 1 Quote

FIrst time we flew into LA was about 1974(?). They didn't have jetways at LAX yet. It was SoCal, you just disembarked to the Tarmac. The door of plane opened on the LA air and the ozone and NOx stung your eyes immediately. I stayed at a hotel at LAX a couple weeks ago. My room had a view of downtown. Still quite smoggy, much more than Chicago, which is hardly at all. Quote

All that does is raise your stress levels, waste your time, and sometimes bring you to their level. Best to ignore it. The last few weeks of trying that has been pretty liberating. This, plus there are others here who make the point I would make far better than I could anyway. Quote

St. Joe/Benton Harbor was Whirlpool's mothership as I called it. I had to go up there all the time, a 3 1/2 to 4 hour drive. I always stayed at The Boulevard Inn & Bistro. Nice place, only 85 bucks a night, and about 10 minutes from the tech center campus. We had a deal for 85 bucks a night because the kid of Whirlpool's CEO at the time, owned the hotel. If you worked for WHR, 85 bucks, which also helped our travel budget as well. They beat us up on that. Peak season that was cheap, and close. I got in trouble about three times from my boss because I was staying there. First thing he would say - where are you staying. The The Boulevard. Yap, yap, yap... It's only 85 bucks dumbass, but you can't say that. Eventually, everyone who traveled to the mothership had to stay 5 or more miles away and spend 150 bucks a night for a room. Brilliant, just brilliant. Quote
