The Brothers who Made a Fortune Doing Nothing

While plenty of people have made a ton of money from good investments, there are only two guys who have made millions of dollars off a bad one. Those men are Ozzie and Daniel Silna, two brothers who once owned a mediocre basketball team called the Spirits of St. Louis. The team was a part of the American Basketball Association, a one-time rival of the National Basketball Association. And when the NBA merged with the ABA, the Spirits of St. Louis were shut down. Except the Silna brothers had no interest in going away quietly. So they negotiated a deal with the NBA that turned their failed basketball team into the greatest source of passive income ever. So sit down and take some financial advice from the only two people to turn a dumb purchase into hundreds of millions of dollars.

To my dear members of the Grain Train, I'm trying something new with this video: I told RU-vid not to notify my subscribers that it had been posted to see if that helps the longterm numbers. So please accept my dearest apologies if you didn't see this one in your subscription feed. Just trying different strategies. And if you enjoyed this video, hit it with a like to help me out

Even though John Y Brown Jr. was probably well off from his dealings with KFC, there’s NO WAY he didn’t kick himself for not hanging in there like the Silna bros did. It’s absolutely insane what a bit of stubbornness (and a good lawyer) can get you in the right circumstances.

Colorado Native here...as a kid, I went to the games when the team was the Denver Rockets. I never wanted one of those t-shirts. As soon as the team changed names and we had Maxie The Miner- finally, a mascot my brother and I were proud to wear!!!!

The USFL (United States Football league) tried to merge with the NFL in 80s I believe, as they were going to collapse. The National Football League was gonna have no part of that as they had the pricier attorneys, which meant sure victory. That's the way I saw it anyway. Amazing yet stomach turning story about these 2 fellows.

Why would the NBA even agree to a deal for an infinite amount of time unless they expected their league to collapse?

So, textiles are woven, shirts, pants, underwear. Knitting, however, is wildly different, a lot looser together and bigger string (yarn).

I add comments to every A Grain of Salt video just because it helps "the algorithm". This channel is like bitcoin 10 years ago, only one way to go.

If commenting helps the video out in the algorithm then comment I shall. But for real, these videos are great.
