Jesus Christ get that food away from him. I get that he's coming to Houston but he doesn't have to be obese to be accepted here.
Is that Grey Poupon? Grey Poupon and Landry’s tenders combo on a private jet. Epitome of wealth, class, and sophistication. Welcome to the good life Jalen.
Why the hate on chicken tenders? Could've been his request, y'all act like chicken tenders aren't good.
Chicken tenders are dope. Ain't no amount of wealth would make me turn my back on the humble chicken tender.
Its just internet hyperbole. Tilman is obviously doing good for himse,f even if he is basing it all on debt and is cash poor, hes STILL pulling off the hustle, good for him. The broke internet hyperbole is because hes been bad for the rockets and at the billion nba owner level, hes been cheap as hell relative to that small 30 man club. Its not that hard to get As far as jets, there are just levels to it. Yes even in the private jet world. A lot of lawyers and cotors out here running around with Light jets or maybe buying a card, bigger money and companies but still for personal use will go with mid, or the luxury option which this looks to be which super mid. for nba size you want to go with this. Tilmans super mid, which I'd imagine is all written and owned by his company for tax and billing purposes is probably not his main one I'd imagine. This one isn't painted or personalized with most would do with their flagship jets. this is probably one the've used to write off for travel purposes for the kids or other company members(the last tax bill allows you to write off entire private jet purposes which led to a boom during the pandemic, lol yes tilman lied about that too) TM: I heard a lot of the managers who are still working are on half pay. Is that right? TF: Absolutely. And thrilled to do it. If not, you have to lay them off or furlough them. TM: What about employees—do you have a rough number of how many have been furloughed? TF: Probably 40,000. You have to understand, this is a big company. Marriott and MGM have furloughed tens of thousands of employees. I can keep everyone employed, that’s easy. But then we would just fold up in 45 to 50 days. My employees want me to save the company. I can tell you honestly, people will work in this office for no pay. They want to save the company. Do people want a job for four months or do they want a job for four weeks? TM: A lot of people are looking at you and saying, this guy is worth $4 billion, whatever it is now. He’s got mansions and yachts and jets. Why can’t he afford to keep everyone on the payroll? TF: You know the answer to that. It’s kind of insulting, okay? Do you think I wouldn’t go sell that stuff right now if I could? TM: I don’t know. That’s why I’m asking. TF: First off, I have $2 billion in equity in the Rockets that I can’t touch, because you can only borrow so much on a basketball team. Do you think there’s a buyer for jets or yachts right now? Absolutely not. Do you think there’s a buyer for a mansion right now? There’s nobody that’s not being affected. TM: I hadn’t thought about that. You’re right. TF: If you go find me a buyer for my yachts and my mansions and my jets, I’ll sell them tomorrow. Two billion dollars of my net worth is in the Rockets, 1.5 to 2 billion is in Landry’s and the Golden Nugget. And then I have a billion in other assets, from stocks to real estate to homes to everything else. But you can’t go spend that right now. Total, and utter bullshit: just like he bragged he could sell half to minority owners like Dell, but he turned them down bc he has billions with an S---yes thats close to the exact quote (https://www.axios.com/private-jets-...vid-55805c2d-c928-4dc6-b75a-0852c6356df2.html https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/19/boa...andemic-dealers-cant-keep-up-with-demand.html https://www.businessinsider.com/wea...xury-homes-during-pandemic-real-estate-2021-4 TM: What would you like to see in it? TF: I don’t know. I really haven’t counted on the government. I’m not one of the largest companies in America and I’m not one of the smallest. When it’s all over with, you can write an article [saying] that I survived and I didn’t get any help from the government. Total and utter bullshit Back to regular programing...TIlman doing the right thing here. If I'm hosting a 1A free agent, I send or charter my top jet. I want every impression to be good, but for a rookie, albeit important one, this is a solid gesture-status quo for top level franchises-- and we did good getting him in and out . One more day...one mo day...
