Give him a break, he was going thru things

You want AB to get a break but not KS? Please explain.

Dude, it was obv sarcasm

OK Dude

Dude. :clap:

No drugs found in AB's system toxicology report

I loved his Koreatown (Los Angeles) episode. That was some of the best conversation about the LA Riots I have ever seen.

or alcohol

French authorities are saying that AB had a significant amount of alcohol in him

crazydaysandnights had a blind item about an improperly hurried and guided autopsy, but it looks like they pulled it.

Not alleging, just reporting.

Alcohol is a drug Einstein.

Drug: a medicine or other substance which has a physiological effect when ingested or otherwise introduced into the body.

Hey asshole. I was just posting the Reuters tweet quoting the prosecutor. Surely you got some immigrant toddlers to go torture or something.

Nope. The Tweet is below this -

That's not a Tweet genius.

I can't imagine a day that Bourdain didn't have significant amounts of alcohol in him

Yep. I'll call BS with you. I remember reading how Bourdain wouldn't do a show in Saudi for the longest time because he couldn't go without booze for a day.

Damn man.....LMAOLMAOLMAO

Dude was worth only 1.21M in filings today, not the 16M believed . And 250K is in dubious "personal property" and 500k is in royalties and residuals. So he had what? Half a mil in actual cash and equity and investments?


No wonder he hung hinself

:eek:

WHAT. THE. ****!? That's gotta be wrong! Or he gave a lot of it away...

Yeah. That's probably the reason

He talked a lot about enriching everyone he worked with and not just himself. Maybe that’s what this looks like?

Or just blew through it like a drunken sailor.

Did he enrich his co-worker who stayed at the hotel with him and found him hanging?

That dude is his best friend, didn’t work for his company.

I found the article I read about him awhile back that I was referencing in my post above. It’s worth a read if you want more insight at all into what you posted earlier.

Welp, partying your ass off, living it up, and dying with a zero balance ain't such a bad thing...

You think that’s blowing through money?

Go read about recent report on Johnny Depp. That’s a holy shit level of spending and waste.

Yeah, that's no shit. Talk about somebody who's basically pushed his entire life off a cliff.

havent read that article but after Disney screwed him on the 1st one, he’s made $600 million total off the Pirate movies, DVD, merchandise, licsensing etc. how does someone blow $600 million?

The guy who found him - Eric Ripert - is a Michelin 3 Star chef and one of the most famous people in the culinary world. But classy post and insight. That added much to this discussion.

Give me 600 million and I'll show you

Drugs and alcohol can evaporate a pile of money of almost any size.

That, and going through life like he's a Saudi prince. The recent Rolling Stone article says he blows through $2M a month.

Spending $2M a month could result in some awesome memories (as long as you don't kill yourself after you spend it).

There's no doubt he was burning the candle at both ends (and ftr, I loved the guy.)

He's also known as stupidly loyal to people he does like.

I think his twisted gf might have pulled him out into deep waters...

Yea not that drugs weren’t a part of it but sounds like just living luxurious with EVERYTIING.

daily $30k bottles of wine and such.

I hope he wrote them off as a business expense.

Not great for an addict.

That said his twitter was much more "curt" than his TV reviews.

And he had a strange relationship with his current gf and normal daddy issues with his daughter.

I think his death is sketchy but I would lean more towards the GF than "omg Hillary kilt him for his twitter!"

Sorry, I was referencing Depp in my post. I think Frazod was too.

It's easy to blow through a ton of money when you love to party and love when everyone has a good time when you are.

Trust me i know. But i wouldn't trade the times. Money can be made any time.

My bad - late to the game.

I'm not sure how Depp (other than being really odd lately) fits in. Fill me in if you don't mind.

Always look at the "SO" first...

It was just recently revealed that Bourdain didn't have nearly the assets one would expect, leading to speculation where his wealth went.

In other recent news, Depp has notoriously depleted an immense fortune [on a scale of $3/4B (with a B)] with lavish spending habits. So people were drawing connections between Depp's spending and Bourdain's apparent spending.

The recent article on Depp

https://www.rollingstone.com/movies/...y-depp-666010/

DO you even read?

I sleep around 3 hours a day and do nothing but that.

But I'm also the resident conspiracy advocate.

Yes, I've read it. You tell me what you think...

Says a lot to me.

True and we all need balance. Sitting on a pile of money and doing nothing with it sure isn't smart either.

But the single worst thing you can do to your adult children is make them support you financially.

And trust me, when you get old and can't take care of yourself, you do not want to see the kinds of choices of nursing home facilities you get when you are on Medicaid through the state's care.
