So just recently, Business Insider put out an article claiming that Facebook's $1 billion dollar acquisition of Instagram was a steal since the company is now valued at over 30x that much. Funny thing is that in 2012, just HOURS after the initial announcement was made, I went on CNN and predicted that call. I did. So I just wanted to call it out, not to brag, but to remind people that when it comes to all of these followers and subscribers, I've earned my keep. Fun right?

    And the most recent information and ideas I've take from you recently Gary is that we must EARN our ways into the future.  
    I work a basic job and know that even that I must WORK for.  If you're to own the Jets, you'll need to EARN $.  If I am to meet Natalie Imbruglia… I must EARN the right and PLU8R needed to achieve that! (Even if it's just to meet her for a day).

    If you were all behind your own opinion then why didn't you fully invest in it yourself? You'd have the Jets by now. But no, it was a guess that turned out right. Don't over stay it's welcome.
