Isn't that what I said before?

I think you guys are getting fooled by the sticker price of a lot of these supposed "deals". Most of them creatively inflate the value to make them feel better in the public eye. I'd do the same if I were a pompous ass with no downside like Iavarone. It isn't his money on the line!
