forbes calls him the #194 richest person in the world, with ~$3.5 BILLION.
i knew he had a lot of loot, but i was thinking hundreds of millions...
3.5 billion and he wont pay the fucking luxury tax.
ps: that list is well worth exploring. i think i could spend days looking through it.
Cheap ass motherfucker.
But that's how the rich stay rich. But he doesn't have to be that cheap. :(
(WTF THE SMILEY WON'T SHOW)
FYI- He hides all his cash in his ginormous ears.
Actually, the Members Only jacket makes a lot more sense now. I mean, those things have, what, 3-4 extra pockets in them? Stuff a billion in each and you are good to go.
Great list to start my sugar mama hunt. Hell for the right price I might start looking for a sugar daddy a la Anna Nicole.
Doesn't Davidson have a hippy-wannabe son who wants no part of Daddy's riches as well??

you get all the money in the world. a girl thats not bad looking. but she's going to outlive you, and if you cheat on her you lose everything. what do you do?
Look for something older and don't sign a pre-nup. I'd grunt over a Granny for a few years if it meant I'd be filthy rich by the time I was 30. Then I could have a 21 yr old for the rest of my life.Quote:

I'd fuck Bill Gates for a billion dollars.
You would too and you know it.
It doesn't make you gay - it makes you smart and filthy fucking rich.
$1,000,000,000 means I own the Pistons!
Fuck all y'all for thinking I was gay.
I hunt you down and have you killed slowly.
Don't worry though, you'd have company.
Pharoah, I thought you were gay long before that post ;)
That's cool, just stay away from boo, Oprah Winfrey. Bitches. [smilie=angryfire.g:Quote:

A billion here, a billion there...pretty soon you're talking some real dough.
I hate when people say things like that. He got that rich by make good business decisions, not by paying the luxury tax to keep overpaid bench players that usually had no impact on the game.Quote:

For a veteran team in contention the hard cap should not be used as an excuse to move your core.
A couple years ago we got stuck losing the lux tax distribution by some miscalculations on the BRI.... we went over the threshold by approximately Darvin Ham's salary (one expensive scrub).... I'm sure that chaffed Mr. D's ass... So Joe has to be a little more careful...
At least they know the cap before the year starts now.

WASHINGTON — The estate of the late William Davidson is taking the IRS to court in what could be one of the largest cases of its kind, with representatives of the Bloomfield Hills billionaire claiming the agency is wrongly trying to squeeze nearly $2 billion in taxes out of the estate — if not more.
Too bad he wouldn't pay for the luxury tax, now he has to pay the IRS.
Between this and the Pistons, there's strong evidence that he never really planned to die.
You're right. Usually people of his calibre plan this stuff years in advance. Maybe he wasn't all with it during his final years.Quote:
