uh huh...

granted it almost does hurt to see how far that fall is and to think that he'll lose his remaining home

but 3.6 million in retirement benefits remain and most likely won't be touched by any remaining proceedings no matter what.

and he's 63

file for social security (which he'll get cuz he's not my age or younger)

and gads it'll probably take winning the lottery to get 3.6 million into my retirement fund by the time i die.

Please... don't take my morbid sense of curiosity as a sign of weakness. My awe at how far he's fallen is the same sort of morbid fascination that goes with the teenaged schoolyard bully beating up a little kid, then meeting his big brother. the marine. who's studied martial arts since the age of 5. fascinating and somewhat painful to watch, but satisfying nonetheless.

also, please don't insult popeye's by implying that their humble product is suitable to feed such as he. I hope that in prison, they garnish his $0.19/hour wage to contine paying down his debt. He could use some honest work. and a few rough-and-tumble prison types to spit in his food.

He is down to less than $650,000? Poor guy. I wish I had those kinds of money problems.

We can only hope that when he files for "bankruptcy protection", he gets nothing of the sort.

Y'know, the bankruptcy laws have been tightened up to prevent people from using bankruptcy as an "easy way out of their debts." If we're lucky, Mr. Lay will be history's highest-profile, er, beneficiary of those new laws.
