that war room scene was great in showing how one billionaire could go about fukking over so many people. I mean we all know this but to see it put to screen in that way of Axe weighing options was equal parts :wow::whoo::mjcry::scust:. Also fukk that Ripley looking bytch, instantly became the most cold blooded character on this

Very good episode overall.

When black people become rich we spend all of our money on materialistic bullshyt like sports cars, jewelry, vast sneaker collections, etc. We don't even think about our kids. Most rich black men marry white women too. So they don't have a truly black family.

You act like its THEIR fault.

I don't care how rich you are. A 500 mil loss is a 500 mil loss. Plus the hit to their future client potential is damaging.

You can't knock them for making a sound business decision.

If you want to blame anyone blame Chucks dad. I'm sure he never considered the ramification of what might happen to the town. All this is a a one up for him. A get back. And for what?

Chuck's dad is also another rich white man playing with people's future no different from Axe, neither one is better but I guess at least Axe aint lying to himself about doing what he does for the betterment of society :yeshrug:. I just find it hard to believe Axe really struggled with this if he could come to the conclusion to be so ruthless to the lives of the people there.

This will seem like a silly question but, what is Axe's net worth? Of course he's a billionaire but it looks like he was sweating real hard over possibly losing $500 million. I get that losing that amount of money is nothing to sneeze at, but I'm thinking it wouldn't take long for him to cover that loss. Or could it be the fact it would make him look weak if he didn't go for the jugular?

It more affects his business. People are less likely to invest with him if he takes a loss. And that is a huge loss.
