I am pretty familiar with Harold Simmons having known who he was due to my uncle's business in Texas when I was a boy 45 years ago....and just keeping up.

Harold Simmons himself is a fairly serious right wing Texan who has funded some political endeavors that helped us.

His daughters are off the reservation and are the beneficiaries of several large trusts-foundations he set up for them when they were kids or young adults and he has had public feuds and legal action including some cloak and dagger type stuff with them given how his views sharply diverge with at least two of the three girls.

This happens so much....look at Ford and Rockefeller and Carnegie and so forth and how their money is now used in ways so in conflict with the known attitudes of the one who earned the money.

Anyone future titans here with kids beware...leave stewardship in firm hands with editorial control.

my point being ...a number of his Foundations are run by his wayward daughters...not much he can do about it...but he has tried...even some attempted illegal ways I think...false docs and stuff

Simmons...God love him...has bigger problems than stupid offspring who likely married equally stupid hipsters..his businesses have lost half their market value..he's down to around 4-5 billion..sux
