Dumbest use of $150k ever. Markup on liquor at a bar is insane.
Hit Vegas in the 90’s. Hard Rock. Saw Vince Neil sitting at a table but that’s besides the point. Heard that drinks were free at the bar as long money is being placed in the video poker machines inlayed in the bar. Bartender did look a little like Madmani come to think of it. “Even Padron Silver?” Got a shot. Sipped that one. Asked Madmani how much it would normally cost. $15. Pricey without tip. These days? 50? No idea.
With 10 other people I once racked up a 5k bar bill. Done that kind of thing precisely once and regret nothing. I imagine Pat’s $150k was about equal to my $500 when compared to our net worth.
Spending 150k that night is how the rich spread their wealth. the servers were likely tipped well. Plenty of staff, and the owner made a bundle. I like the plan.
How much of it was tip revenue?
