Mind Blowing Shit

So everyone has seen the Priceline.com commercials with William Shatner.... Did you know that he doesnt get paid for these spots? Instead, he brokered a deal to get stock in the company in return for his airtime.... he sold the majority of the stake pre-dot com bubble right before the bubble burst and has been collecting since. And how much has he made from this?

SIX

HUNDRED

FUCKING

MILLION.

holy fuck. he must be the luckiest/most well paid spokesman in all time. there is obviously 50 cents glaceau PE placement which also kicked ass but anyone else have any other ideas -- from non finance professionals?!

Haha. Connery must be beside himself. He would've banked 600mil as well had he accepted playing Gandalf. Talk about regret.

People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis, you can't trust people Jeremy
