UGH, I proposed marriage in Paradise MI a million years ago. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

 

 

 

 

I take it that it went poorly.  And here I am playing Meat Loaf’s classic as the sunsets over the Tahquahmenon River.  My wife of 35 years is unmoved.

Paradise BY The Dashboard Light? LOVE that song.

How romantic!

The only videos I listen to these days are the 2yo videos on Sunday. I had no idea there wasn't buckets anymore. I emailed Anthony and he said he mentioned in several videos no buckets for the next few sales. Interesting. In the past he wanted to know how much money he had to play with, smart. And now I guess it's a guessing game. I'm getting a feeling about The Stable that isn't good. I'm staying, but buying less for sure.

As far as Paradise Mi goes at the end of the song he professes " I will love you til the end of time ". Then later says " so now I'm praying for the end of time ". Was never a big Meatloaf fan but that song is in my top 10 of all time. Great video too. That's when MTV actually played music videos but we all know video killed the radio star.   🙂

September and October brings back so many memories that intertwined horse sales, racing, and romantic interludes.  No wonder I get giddy this time of year.  Gloriously, my Starlink is operating at my campsite in the UP and watching Ohio Grey championships tonight and Scarlett/Yonkers tomorrow night.  Now, if I can just get Wendy to turn back the dial.

I had no idea either. I am been summarizing less and less vids these days. 

I can't remember how long ago but I saw it mentioned much fewer Ohio breds this year. 

I am not sure how many shares were available, but a cheap Illinois bred sold out pretty quickly a few days ago.

Anthony did mention in a couple of videos there wouldn't be any buckets. I'm to lazy to go back and find the video but in one for them he mentioned a conversation with John where the buckets were described as a "mess", but nothing was brought up about how they'd be replaced.

Just my 2¢ worth but other than buying the horses I think the entire process could be executed in the client portal with minimal effort since most of the infrastructure would already be there. Instead of listing buckets have one line where "advance payments", "credits" or whatever you want to call them could be made, set a minimum buy in of $400 then allow any amount above that in increments of $100, since all the money collected from buckets went into one pool anyway. In the portal a drop down module like is used for the private sale could be created specifically for the yearling sales. The only people that could execute buys in this module would be people that made advanced payments. Once the sale is over all the horses from the sale could be listed and locked in the module as soon as the sale ends (Friday Night).  Doing this would give buy in people a opportunity to evaluate the horses and plan how they want to spend the advance payment they made. Set a designated day and time to unlock the horses (ex: Sunday 11am) at that time anyone that was part of the buy in could purchase shares of any of the horses up to the amount of their advance payment. ( ex: if the New York connection made $1200 advance payment the could buy any combination of horses up to a total of $1200, they could choose for example 1-$500 horse, 1-$400 horses and 1-$300) this would all be on a first come first served basis, no more texts, emails or phone calls to Anthony. After a specified length of time anyone that was part on the buy in could purchase any of the unsold shares just like happened after all the buckets were filled, but here again this would all be done in the yearling module, then at some point any unsold shares could be moved to the Public Market.

I have no idea how this will be viewed compared to the buckets but I do know I would never send $1000 to Amazon and ask them to send me a $1000 worth the TV's of their choice.

I'll apologies in advance if I didn't make things clear, putting pencil to paper has never been my forte.

Well thought out idea Mark.  I have resigned to the idea that AMac is most comfortable having a loose process.  With his charisma and willingness to promote, it is a shame that he doesn’t hire a Chief Operating Officer type to monitor all facets of the business.  If anything, John is a CFO figure.  But it is hard to tell when you have to piece together information by viewing rambling videos.

Interesting approach Mark. With all the videos Anthony makes I find it strange he's never made one with this John dude. I agree he is a CFO figure and it's odd we've never been introduced.
