I had a bet with my boss last summer . . . I said the price of oil would hit $20/barrel before it ever hit $200/barrel. The winner of the bet gets a billion dollars.
Neither one of us has anything close to a billion dollars, mind you . . . but it would be nice to win the bet anyway. :-P
(laughing) - I bet a “Five Star Lunch” on $36/bbl avg by dec 31st
The bet was made Oct 1st.
What’s a billion, even a billion here or a billion there? Tell your boss to belly up to the Bailout Bar ASAP. House payments or rent could be an issue, but a billion...no sweat!
