In Response To: What percentage (Jimbo)

"At least Wong's record is public, and I've always found him to be honorable, but what's this love affair going on between Shlesinger [sic] and this Gordon guy--is it all about love or is there a stash of cash under the mattress on Shlesinger's [sic] side of the bed?"

A. I don't have a handicapping record, because I don't bet sports. Haven't in about 15-20 years. I used to.

B. Would you like to ask a specific question, or should I ask the questions and answer them for you. For example:

1. Were you paid to proofread Dan's manuscript? No.
2. Do you get a share of the profits from the clients he gets? No.
3. Do you get a share of the royalties of his book sales? No.
4. Do you get any monetary remuneration whatsoever from your association with Dan Gordon? No.
5. So, what's in it for you? I like the guy, and find him to be the most talented handicapper I've ever met. Often, when I think highly of people, I praise them. Shoot me!

Don

P.S. Oh yes. I do get Dan's picks for free; but you should be aware of the fact that I never asked him for that. And, up until now, I've been stupid enough to NOT have bet on any them. That may change this year! :-)
