T. Boone Pickens benches 120 pounds. He is 72. He made over $200,000,000 last year from a very low base after taking huge losses. He married a 52 year old blond on Thanksgiving 2000 even though it is impossible (for someone else) to get a preacher, church, judge to marry you on thanksgiving and waive the three day waiting requirement. I believed in T. Boone and natural gas and bought mesa pete. i made some money in some trades. I lost some on what I held. It is now Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD). It has come back a lot with rise of natural gas, but still way down. I know of Richard Roundtree from my bankruptcy practice.I was surprised to learn T. Boone Pickens made over $200,000,000 last year from a very low base after taking huge losses. So, I had the right idea, but it didn't quite work out for me. My info comes from this months Esquire. If I had made $200,000,000, I would have bought a $7,500 suit.
