  &quot; Mr. Thompson, I'm thinking of investing about a million dollars in your new casino business but I'm afraid of the risk involved in it. Is it legal? I mean most casino businesses are illegal and I wouldn't want my money to go to waste. It's hard to earn a fortune these days you know, and_______&quot;
  &quot; Mr. Gonzales&quot; I called to the bald head man who was miles away from me trying to make him stop with his blabbering as I was getting irritated. He was a Spanish business tycoon who had quite a fortune but didn't know how to invest his money. He was just on the news a while back because of his eighteen years old, fifth wife who had squandered his money on a designer outfit that cost a thousand dollars.
