[email protected]> Date: Tue, Feb 24, 2015 at 8:20 AM Subject: To: Melanie Spinella Leon, Yesterday , I again spent hours upon hours of my time with your office. ,( speak to brad to get flavor) and you and i will discuss the results in gory gruesome detail on Friday. it mirrored many other weeks spent doing the things that I don;t have the time to do. In order to keep things in perspective, maybe reviewing an analogy I have used before with you, might be helpful. You and your family are a 6 billion dollar corp. with an income between 250 -500 million dollars per year. It contains a few operating biz's , a large wide array of existing investments, in various categories , a desire to enter into others. A panoply of loans, notes. purchases, wide range of all types of taxes. , planes. boats homes.. trusts ,grats. a crazy number of bank accts. ( with no oversight ) . law firms, acct firms, 800 page tax returns, foreign firms. art consultants. construction consultants bill payers, home mgmt.,vast multitude of Ilc's , including foreign, and with all that you only have a combined overhead of less that 3 million dollars. I have previously sent you the very same note that i have enclosed again below ,this time with highlights . I wrote it to you over a year ago. As my acute disability ( selective memory) seems to have been raised as one of your concerns , as a rule I try to memorialize things in writing in an attempt to lay out issues that I fear may later turn out to be a problem. ie what i would and wouldn't do , - my responsibilities. etc and those things that are not. below you will find details of things that I thought needed to be done, so that you wouldn't find yourself in the very place where you currently find yourself. however ,you chose to defer many of my suggestions- see below -,until only weeks ago
