This week we’re covering the man formerly known as the Bill Gates of Japan Masayoshi Son. The world record holder for largest drop of net worth (70 Billion) the man who for 3 days was richer than Bill Gates, the early investor of Ali Baba, Uber and WeWork (oops!) The current owner of ARM chips, Boston dynamics, and a big believer in what will kill us all the singularity. We discuss how his investments in start ups have devastated the start up market. His way of judging a company is seeing if their CEO’s eyes have a certain fire in them. Lastly, we cover his Vision Fund the 300 year, 100-billion-dollar plan, which includes money from Saudi Arabia Public Investment fund seems to us this vision is to own Asia in all the worst ways. Enjoy!

This week we're discussing a relatively obscure billionaire heir to a cable fortune named Gary Magness. He won an oscar for producing the movie Precious and is currently in court fighting to not have to return $80 million he stole as part of a Ponzi scheme but what we're most interested in is his connection to the episodes we did on the Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI). His father Bob Magness was on the board and a major shareholder in a BCCI subsidiary named Capcom Financial which was linked to Saudi Arabian intelligence and to at least $1.3 billion in assets stolen out of the main vehicle of BCCI. His father never was prosecuted never had to return the money he made and now some of that money belongs to Gary. Now Gary spends his Saudi intelligence money buying his daughter a pop music career. We live under the most efficient economic system possible.

Here's a copy of the 1992 Kerry Committee report on Capcom Financial the first and last investigation the US government conducted into this:

On our first Patreon episode we continue the saga of Bill Gates from this week’s freeloader (not you) episode. We learn about what a horn-dog he is and frankly all feel gross as a result. We also talk IBM and all kinds of fun 90's dirt. Thank you for subscribing! Love ya!

We cover the lifestyle and misdeeds of Dan Snyder the owner of the Washington Redskins. He was the youngest owner at the age of 34, and it didnt work out well. This year the team is 1-8 a abysmal record contributed by Dan Snyder being a bit of a worm and weasel. We are joined by Joel Walkowski co-host of the Hold my Bread podcast.

We didnt have time to discuss all of the mistreated players, but this story on Trent Williams should show you what they think of their talent.
