This is—this man is named Larry Silverstein, and he is both the dumbest and the luckiest businessman in the world.

He’s the stupidest businessman in the world because six weeks before 9/11, he buys the lease to the World Trade Center. Okay, why is that stupid? Because the World Trade Center has asbestos, and, like, a dangerous chemical, so they had to clean or remove the asbestos.

The problem is the cost of removing—of removing all that asbestos would have been more than the value of the Twin Towers. That’s kind of stupid, okay? Why would you lease the Twin Towers knowing that you have to put all this money into renovation, which would bankrupt you?

Also, what’s stupid is, to have the lease, you’re required to have insurance, okay? And so the insurance company says, “We value the World Trade Center at $1.5 billion,” okay?

And Larry Silverstein: “No, it’s not $1.5 billion. They are worth $3.5 billion.” So he is asking to pay more insurance than he needed to. That’s kind of stupid.

But again, he’s the luckiest man in the world because none of that happens. And guess what? He can now claim that two towers were struck, and therefore he should get twice as much as 3.55 Billion [as captioned]. He should get 7 billion.

And he sued. They went to court. He got 4.55 billion, okay?

He’s also lucky because he’s—he’s a workaholic. He never misses work. But that day, because of a dermatology appointment, he had to miss work. He wasn’t there when 9/11 happened. The luckiest man in the world.

This is what billionaires should do
