Thank you for having a great memory!
I offered a solution!
It’s not my fault Andrew doesn’t do this.
Thanx for posting!

As I said earlier, he should catch up!
Sit tight and be patient!

Growing up, my father ran his dad's liquor store when prices were alot cheaper. Back then a 6 pack of beer was $1.50 for the better brands and $1.32 for the cheaper stuff.

Only in the horse game people just do back of the envelope math and make everything sound like sunshine and rainbows while, in fact, it's anything but. You conveniently forgot expenses which started the moment the hammered drop and believe me, don't end. And the plane ride home is 30US, the insurance to get him off the premises is 3% alone and it goes better from there. I agree with your assessment of the mares and what the stud fee may look like but getting their money back in three years is  never going to happen.
