Hang on, this is where I get caught up. Again, why would he just walk away or “give up” on $3-5MM?
Would you? I don’t care how rich you are, people don’t just look the other way from that amount of money.
Murray Edwards requires his approval over an extremely low expense threshold at his company, as an example. Would Murray just go “meh” over $3-5MM? And if so, why doesn’t he just offer it to Gaudreau then and settle it?
