As I suspected—and you already answered my next question—having money doesn’t make someone immune to foolishness. What I mean is, just because someone has money doesn’t automatically make them an expert in anything. I was watching an episode of American Greed recently, where an Asian man who had stolen millions, maybe even billions, was buying fine art. At one point, he looked at a Monet painting and asked if the artist was still alive. If I were the seller in that moment, the price of that painting would have skyrocketed!
I currently live in a community where golf is not as popular as many other places. As a consequence, the courses are cheaper and not as well maintained. Some people complain, but I say the opposite. It is very nice to be able to get on the course almost anytime without a tee time and not paying $100 or more a round. Freedom to play without being rushed or slowed down is a blessing. So even though we have talked many times about pool players making millions, we are sometimes very lucky they aren't. We have access to the greatest players in the world and can even compete against them relatively cheaply. You, Jay and some others even get to host them and pick their brains. Not many other sports can you have such a tight access. Do you know what kind of set up Joe Rogan has ( Table, cues etc)? FYI tonight it the interview—it's going to be HUGE!
