Its hard to distinguish between a very good business person and a person that has no moral compass.
Making $squillions from peoples misery (gambling) is not something a lot of other very clever people would not do.
Yes I know if she didn't do it someone else would, but I would not class that as a good business person.
Yes Mike, but you must admit, Aquascoot has an interesting thesis. He's saying that those who are successful in taking millions off their online pokie customers each year are heroes.
But he also says that men like Mr Trump, who bankrupted himself in the offline casino business, are heroes too.
Do you see? Maybe, in one way or another, we're all heroes.
Unless you're a leftard, obviously.
people who are at the "cause ' are heroic.
people who are at the "effect" are not.
when donald or this lass start a business they have already won.
they will either succeed and win or they will fail and then when you fail often enough, you learn what NOT to do, which is akin to winning.
so action = heroism.
fat steve and fat jeneen cant win.
even if they were to win the lottery, it would all evaporate becasue they arent into taking the correct sorts of action.
trump could easily have been fat steve.
he could have retired to the golf course and stimulated himself with women and food and cocaine til he died. thats what most rich people who have lost momentum do. thats what most people who are "just done" do.
but trump voluntarily put himself up to have literally millions of people use mob mentality and social pressure to try to take him out.
as a 70 yo he voluntarily got back in the ring and took on the might of the establishment.
you, karnal, think you are brave taking on mechanic and panther on an obscure internet forum.
you risk nothing.
trump is risking it all, possible jail, everything he has built.
i dont think we could call him anything other then incredibly brave
