Bankrupt a casino? How can You bankrupt a casino? He managed to bankrupt, what is basically a scam, and still calls himself a businessman.

[–] hyperhopper@lemmy.world 65 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

He did it 6 times, not 1.

The answer is corruption, skimming from the top, and using company assets as if they were his.

Sounds familiar

I suppose he also made lots of money from his bankruptcies.

Capitalism

Bankruptcy is a feature for the wealthy, and a horrible last resort for the working class.

If you embezzle enough, you can kill any business

Casinos are not "basically a scam" they are literally a scam on paper.

Even as a young child I couldn't see the appeal of slot machines. Like isn't it obvious that the computer in it is programmed to pay out less than you put in?

He never said he was a "good" business man.
