Trump on Switzerland:
Take a look at Switzerland. We have a $39 billion deficit. I can wipe out that deficit in one stroke of the pen and they're no longer an elite country. Yet they pay one-half of one percent interest. They're the lowest ones.
And all I have to do is say, "I don't want any of your watches. I don't want any of your goods." And we save ourselves $39, $41 billion, and they go from being elite to being very troubled.
Fortunately, I'm a nice person.

James Cameron def has a better origin story than Christopher Nolan.
In his mid-20s, Cameron was working as a truck driver. On weekends, he drove to University of Southern California and photocopied binders full of technical filmmaking papers.
“I gave myself a full [film] education for like a $120 in [Xerox].”
In 1978, he raised $20k from a network of dental surgeons (dentists love alternative investments) for a 12-minute sci-fi short film called Xenogenesis.
Film didn’t do much but was able to parlay that into a job with horror legend Roger Corman, which led to him directing a Jaws knock-off in 1982 (Piranha II) before breaking out with The Terminator in 1984.
Legit went from truck driver to King of Hollywood.
