More Questions than Answers

Hello fellow associates

I sit here with more questions. Someone made a comment Bobo is going to be 69 in May. At first that statement did not really mean much to me.

Then that little voice in my head started speaking. It started to ask all sorts of questions, and I could not come up with answers. Maybe someone in the webworld will be able to help me answer these.

1. If I was a billionaire and was about to turn 69 or 70, I would ask myself what am I trying to accomplish in life? Some people will say it is create a hell for the working class. Why? If I had that kind of money I would be on a beach somewhere. Drinking fruity drinks and reducing stress. I sure and the hell would be adding stress to my life at that age.

2. How old am I going to be, before I throw the towel in? Realistically how many years do I have left to where I can run this company? Before you give me answer like 100, think for a second. If you were 69 years old, how many years can your body function correctly? I can't hardly get out of bed and I am nowhere near 69. Body parts just don't function that well at that age. Why go through the last remaining years on this planet like that? Especially if you don't have too. It does not make a lot of sense.

3. What is the overall goal of Bobo? Someone will say because he is a lunatic or a money grabbing ass. Those may be true, however... Bobo has more money than he can spend. Even Bill Gates retired and went on to do other things in life. Bill is spending money not trying to make more. I don't think it is about the money.

Bobo if you reading this you seriously want to consider the questions above. Not trying to tell you what to do with your life, but is it worth it? In 30 years from now is anyone going to care that you put all these policies together? Is anyone going to care that you had a ton of money in the bank? Is anyone going to care that you screwed another OEM, dealer, or employee? What will you be remembered for?

Too bad Bobo can not buy more time... The clock is his worst enemy and there is nothing he can do about it.

tick... tick... tick...

  1. 30 years from now after Bob, the party will be long over, and "ding dong, the wicked witch is gone" will be a faint echo. Then what? I believe RR will also be a faint memory in 30yrs....or less. Bob, You can't take your money with you but you'll get your reward. Maybe you can take it, have your spouse write a check and stick it in there with you.

    Bob, You want to make sure this isn't a message for you, I truly don't know, only you do:
    'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.' But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and you are tormented (forever and ever, added by me). And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from there pass to us.' Then he said, 'I beg you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house, for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, lest they also come to this place of torment.' Abraham said to him, 'They have Moses and the prophets, let them hear them.' And he said, 'No, father Abraham, but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.' But he said to him, 'If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rise from the dead.' "
