Sure helps in a high interest rate environment when you withhold property tax refunds for months on end, because the state somehow couldn’t verify the property number you’ve been providing them for the past 20+ years.

What money did he “invest”. Where did it come from, what’s it for and why is it sitting around. This article seems like a puff piece that really doesn’t give any details as to whether it was a good return or good use of the money.
