Isn’t that Todd Ricketts?


I interviewed with Zell once. They didn’t like me.

Probably sensed that you had a moral compass.

I'm not even being smartass but am genuinely curious - If you google Sam Zell images you get well over 100 pictures of him and none of Ricketts. Further, Zell has a very distinctive look. How did you end up with that pic?

Because he's a fucking genius who can't tell his ass from a hole in the ground. Its a marvel he can distinguish between a Cubs and Sox logo.

Zell never owned the Cubs. He was always in the news as rumored to buy but never did.

:lol: :lol: Zell hadn't been involved with Cubs ownership for almost 20 years.

Even Google is subtly trying to tell you how stupid you are.

For several years, Zell would send out year-end gifts to clients in the form of a custom music box with a song that he re-worked with lyrics to reflect the current state of the markets. One year I happened to receive one that a colleague forwarded to me and it was pretty cool...it was a parody of "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head" with the lyrics describing how the world was awash in excess capital with no where to put it. I wish I could find the accompanying video (and the others he did each year).
