Well, I wasn't going to respond to this, but if you understand what his investments are you'd notice he basically controls all of Mexico's infrastructure: roads, sewers, power, and telecommunications. This means a good share of Mexico's GDP actually represents his yearly income...
He also has a large stake in the NYT and Goldman Saks. So, yeah, I'd say his wealth is for real.

Im just saying there has to be some none legit money in there. As beeing half mexican and having family still live over there, trust me there has to be some no good-ness going on there. My grandma told me once of her getting a tour of all the vistas that are down there wich 90% of them are owned by drug runners, while her and her friend were down there not a single house was unguarded by men in body armor and sub-machine guns. Im just saying he has to have soming wrong, Im sure just like bill gates and all the rich guys have some illigal money.

I'm not saying his contracts were ethically generated. I'm just saying, on paper, it's probably legit. :)

I'm curious as to who the most liquid rich person is. All of these individuals have huge sums of money invested in places they can't get to it.
Warren Buffet can't touch his Berkshire stock except at specific times, and there are limits to his divestment. Same will Bill and all the other corporate owners. The Saudi prince seems to have the most liquid fixed asset listed with his jewelery collection.
I read an interesting article recently on how much Warren Buffet actually pays himself, and it is a pittance compared to most CEO's salary.

I think I would rather have an Empire then Liquid. But thats just me!
-
An empire will do you no good when the zombies come...
-
Im pretty sure Liquid wont do any good either! Atleast with an Empire I could have men working under me that could do the fighting while I set up my bunker.

I had a meeting the other day at work and I was pissed before it because some of my employees didn't want to go to the meeting and they complained. I calmed down, took a breath, took one to the side and politely defused the situation. Afterward, I sang this song on my way to the car.
No one said that gangstas don't have manners.

Kinda. I supervise Supplemental Instruction leaders to make sure they are effective instructors. I can't fire them, so I guess they aren't my employees, but it is faster to say rather than explaining it all.

Your a teacher wrangler? So, for a high minded and well studied educator like yourself, is working with "supplemental instruction leaders" of like a normal human working with apes? Like, you know they technically belong in the same family group as you but you just don't see it.

Some of them are really great with ideas that are inspired, but others are horridly awkward and introverted. Essentially, it's like I'm teaching high school again.
So, the ape analogy still applies.

Homo Sapiens is of the Great Ape family. You're all apes.

But not many of us are "grape apes"

Yes, I know. That was the whole crux of my joke.

True. He can only do 1d6 a round.

He can only eat 1d6 investigators a round.
Only.

A bug zapper works great. They gravitate to the shiny.

Im a little scared that I make a quote from alians and the master thinks of an even more scary late 80s early 90s song. He truly is a god of horror!
