I know we’re worrying about JUUL pods right now (which is somehow also a religious debate based on WSO discussions... uh ok), and we’ve overlooked the passing of ol’ T. Boone at 91.
Clearly the inspiration for the Rich Texan on The Simpsons, he was one of the OG wildcatters and my favorite corporate raider. I get the love for KKR, Milken, etc, when we think of the 80s, but TBP was my favorite, whatever one thought of his politics. I have a soft spot in my heart for greenmailing. RIP.
