I'm not a Mopar fan, but I really didn't like seeing them get pummeled "durch
Meister Auto Hersteller".

A "merger of equals", ya right!

How da heck did he get so freaking rich?

 

According to Forbes:

"High school dropout, amateur boxer, WWII civilian pilot. Started charter airline after war with surplus aircraft, sold for $104 million profit. Began buying Chrysler shares in early 1990s: by the time the automaker merged with Daimler-Benz last year, original $1.5 billion investment yielded $5 billion profit."

Current worth $7.3 billion, #30 on the 2000 Forbes 400 Richest in America list, down from #20 in 1998.

Bill Gates dropped out I believe...from Harvard, so you know he's intelligent just because he was able to get in in the first place. You guys hear of Wayne Huizenga in Florida? High school dropout who now owns the Miami Dolphins and was the creator of Blockbuster Video.

He used to own the Florida Marlins, but sold them. I'm not sure if he owns the Florida Panthers though...and definitely not the Miami Heat. But yes, he started off with the waste management company...people in Florida know all about him(I used to live there for 13 years).

 

To succeed in business, you need the 3 B's: brains, balls, and bullshit. Of these three, brains are the least important.
