I want to become a billionaire--but not the Mark Cuban or Mark Zuckerberg way. I want to run a media empire. I haven't gotten too far yet. (I have a YouTube channel. Does that count?) But I want to be like Sumner Redstone. He's the head of CBS, Paramount, MTV, BET, Showtime, Nickelodeon, Simon & Schuster, and Comedy Central.
I've been studying him. What doe he do? Well, for starters, he sues people. A lot. I recently came across an article titled "Is There Anyone Sumner Redstone Hasn't Sued?" It talked about how Sumner pretty much sues everyone. I'm surprised he didn't sue the author and publisher of that article for libel. So I guess he doesn't sue everyone.
But he does seem fond of lawsuits. Actually, that's not true. I've been reading his autobiography--and in it, he repeatedly states that he doesn't like lawsuits. He tries to avoid them. In fact, he mentions that about every two pages.
Page 50. "I wasn't going to let her get away with what she was doing. So I sued her. I didn't want to sue her. I don't like suing people. But I really didn't have a choice. So I filed a $100 million suit against her. After all, she had no right to knock on my door and try to sell me girl scout cookies."
Page 52. "They crossed the line. And they left me with no option but to file a suit. Lawsuits are something I try to avoid--but sometimes there's not much you can do. So I sued them for $500 million. After all, they're calling themselves the International House of Pancakes--but they don't even serve any Latvian or Pakistani food."
So I guess you need to sue people. Or even if you don't file any suits, you need to have that attitude. "You know what? I'm not going to let you get away with this nonsense. I'm going to keep you in line."
I want to sue Sumner Redstone. That's my goal. I want to build a media empire, and I want to sue Sumner Redstone. That'll be like him passing the baton on to me. Me suing him. So look forward to a lawsuit. My media empire is going to sue his companies. We'll also go after Sumner himself. And I'll personally sue Sumner. And his companies. And his kids. I don't want to sue his kids. I don't like lawsuits. But they really crossed the line. I'm not sure why--but I'll figure something out.
He'll probably file a counter suit. I'm anticipating that. This is basically me baiting him into filing a countersuit. Because I'm going to counter his countersuit. I know what I'm doing here.
You have to figure out how to file as many lawsuits as possible. Explore all angles.
