And this is where I learned a lot from Egon in this situation.
He says, I think that Chernin, they were going to pay, I think it was $1.9 billion.
And he said, we're paying 2.4.
I said, 2.4?
Why don't we pay 2.1?
He goes, we're going to make it so they can't say no and they can't go back because they don't want us.
And he was 100% right.
Pay two-four, we get it.

Family stayed in Rhode Island and LA.
I moved for, I think it was four or five months.
And all over Europe.
I went to Spain for our tennis business.
All over, learned all the players.

Fried.

And then I represented writers, directors, actors.
