Money, Money, Money (and Lawyers)

The Enron settlement gives $7.2 billion to shareholders and a record $668 million (plus interest) to lawyers.

Law firms don't do quite that well with trust and estate cases. Still, billable hours can add up over the years. Gerry Beyer on his blog notes that squabbles have swirled around the estate of Tom Carvel, the soft ice cream king, ever since his death. That was back in 1990. Legal fees to date: $28 million.

7 Figure Code
On February 23rd, earlier this year, a select group of elite millionaire business owners shared their most intimate secrets of running a seven figure business... secrets known to only a handful of the most respected, highly sought-after business leaders in the world!
This covert training (No Pitch Event) went for three full days of intensive, content-rich "nothing held back" instruction designed to teach - by example - how these marketing moguls run every aspect of their business (something never before attempted at any other seminar.)
...In fact, it was not a seminar. It was a $5000 workshop, or more like a 72 hour re-organization of your brain-cells For Record-Breaking Success in Any Business!
