“Oh, but you might. That’s what I’m afraid of. You see, if you send the Secret Service or FBI or anybody after us, to arrest us, or if you don’t let us have this money, then you are doing just that. You are keeping us from living the good life. Keeping us broke and dependant on all the rich guys.” “You have the same opportunity they’ve had, Troy.” “No, honestly we don’t. We don’t get the same breaks. We don’t have partners that are willing to invest with us. We can’t get millions of dollars in backing to do something, to start a company, like you can or they can. So, you see, we don’t all have the same opportunity.” “They’ve built that up for themselves.” “Because they either knew people or had help. Well, we’ve got help now. We’ve got the cash, and I’m not letting it all go. In fact, I’m not letting any more than half go. And if we can’t agree to that, then you guys can just start over from scratch, and we’ll keep all of the money. Let’s see how that works out. You guys can work for us from now on.”
