6. The big ultra corp guys are so fake.

But some of the smaller business people seem to be for real. I know there was a pretzel guy I liked.

The real story is the workers and how they bust their asses for the businesses.

That one guy who owns all the resorts and timeshares is a true venture vulture capitalist. And he thinks buying people houses and dropping thousands of his own cash was somehow making his image out to be a good guy. I do think his emotional response a few times was real (there was a Mexican woman who he was astounded lived in horrific conditions and he bought her a house and I think even got one of her sick kids help), but I don't think it overshadowed just how he really was in reality. It was a nice gesture though and I'm glad for those workers that did get help, but his business wouldn't be able to operate without having hundreds if not thousands of wage-earners at his beck and call, doing hard work to keep it going. For every worker he helped there were probably hundreds in a life condition equal to or worse.
