Kevin O’Leary says he begged Rolex for a mythical $1.8 million watch, then cried when the box opened
“It is the grail piece of all watches. It is the white gold, ruby and diamond Daytona. Grown men weep just looking at pictures of this mystical beast”
“I got on my knees and begged for it. The morning before the Oscars, the phone rings. They gave me an address and said, ‘Be there’”
“The entire Rolex staff had never seen it. For an hour, we looked at it. We didn’t touch it. I was weeping. Walking around with $35 million”

thinking about how Brigham Young invented an alphabet with a letter called "Gay" that looks like an amongus. truly a man ahead of his time. a prophet if you will.
