Radical but my preferred idea. . START from total scratch. there is absolutely nothing worth
keeping in your family office except for heather , nothing at all . I remember when 1 bought my first
house in order to renovate and jack robertson said forget it. knock it down start again, I could n't
believe it. but he was right. Like your tax returns that were done in triplicate. TOM RICH ALAN. .
tom and rich were not really useful in the end. Alan was the only smart one. you should in my
opinion Start a brand new office. hire cfo. bring joe over. heather and samantha, — run parallel
for 6 months and close down the mess of elysium forever. leave your kids a functioning operation
professionally constructed and managed. NOT BY ME!!!
LAst nov 1 laid out priorities IT , being the first nothing as of today. _in July I said focus on airplane
as atest. to examine procedure and proficiency, so far mostly a waste of resources time people
etc. Only last week told debra owns 49 percent of plane. no IT to speak of. bens house
unaccounted for. tax returns very very sloppy, . boat still argued as third home. . pilots bonuses? ,
structure unkown by all. cash sitlling at the same time loans outstanding.
Phaidon , looks like close to breakeven in a few years. others totally unknown. Query , do you
really want this ? : Im not sure how you both want to have an investment office and have cash flow
being eaten by publishing and loans amounts outstanding increased by art. --interest rates will be
going up.-. your plane will cost 10 million to refinance - so will boat if sold next year-. art space and
regan , both needs more cash. with little return, taxes , art purchases. Part of radical solutition is to
sell publishing.altogether. (are the children really interested.) restrucuture plane from scratch.
layers unncessary. simplify crazy structure s bank accounts trading accounts accounts payble. credit
cards. etc. The best way to wean yourself away from me is to have someone else do the whole thing
from scratch. . move brad to be the replacement for Richard. . he is nice but this is not what he does.
Him saying it is soooo fucked up to me , was only an echo of me sayint it to you.

as brad can attest , I spent time today with joslin, joe. etc. no question at all, a failed experiment. In
the words of a banker that made a call on your office. what happened? leon seems to have replaced
Eillenn with a team of Shleppers. ? I know you care little for what they may think , but the legacy you
leave your kids is just that. you only have 60 days of planning left for this year. numbers are all over the
place.
I recieved a nice call from Karp today, . He touted me as a great friend to you. I am happy to be just
that.. He said it was important for me to tell you what others won't. Keep heather, fire EVERYONE
else.
