With that kind of ching, who cares about your career or "legacy"? They can snort coke off the oh-so-firm bellies of 1000 dollar a night hookers and eat tenderloin while sipping the world's most expensive Cabernet for the rest of their days. With that kind of failure behind me, I'd be fishing the keys off of my 35-foot center console while laughing my a$$ off for the rest of my life.
