Most Lakers fans out there are familiar with Dr. Jerry Buss since he owns the team but I bet most of them aren't familiar with how he acquired the wealth to purchase an NBA franchise. After reading Jerry Buss's biogrpahy, I felt that his was worthy of a post. So check it out......Jerry Buss got his PhD from USC in Physical Chemistry and went to work for TRW which is now modern day Northrop Grumman. Apparently, he worked there for several years and became rather frustrated with the red tape there and declared the place a Shitshow and started doing real estate deals over the phone all day at work. You see when you work at a Shitshow, it is easy to run your own business out of your cubicle since no one knows or cares what you do on a daily basis. So apparently, after a while Jerry Buss was doing so many real estate deals, he quit the Shithow and started his own real estate company and the rest is history. I mean, he made enough money to buy the LA Lakers and he probably sleeps on a bed stuffed with 100 dollar bills and 4 Victoria Secret models. Usually the Shitshow gets the best of people and sucks the youthful exuberance out of them and makes them 100 pounds overweight and mindless robot zombies, but not Jerry Buss.....he got the last laugh.
A true inspiration to us all.
Becuase I havent figured out a way to take advantage of the Shitshow like Jerry Buss, I throw rocks.
