As Billy King prepares to spend more of Mikhail Prokhorov's money (Bruce Ratner's too), Prokhorov is offering advice on money matters to Bloomberg News. Asked what to do with a million dollars, Prokhorov answered, "spend it with pleasure". We assume that means Billy should be happy with his investments, whoever they are.
A lot of the other advice was tuned to the safest investment ("As a large chunk of my wealth is in Polyus Gold, a bar of gold, of course!"), best business advice ("Keep your back straight and don’t fidget") and who he would trust with his entire portfolio ("His name is Mikhail. I sign every check myself.") Good information for agents to know, that last one.
He wasn't asked about the Nets as an investment but when Bloomberg wanted to know about his worst investment, he replied, "I hope my worst investment is yet to come". Whew.

$28M look like nothing to him
So he’s not that worried.
He definitely lose more than that, but somehow recovered it. He’s a businessman after all.
But unfortunately in the NBA, $28M is nothing to sneeze about.
Believe!
I can't wait till this post is buried over with real news.
We are all starved for something solid and get this? Come on NI, your better than that.
Proky is a very relevant topic now that the lockout is being lifted.
Making the Nets a contender is likely a fun hobby for Proky at this time.
LOL...
Who do you think Net Income is ?
I believe that’s aunt-B on the left and Jerry25 on the far right…
Does look like NI !
I was wondering where Aunt B went!
Didnt you see Billy's comments?
No media circus.

Where is Proky at this moment?
His flight plan says he was headed for Moscow, but now says “result unknown”
The flight map suggests he might be near the Northern tip of Scotland.
Could he be HeloSkiing?
that flight was completed yesterday
arrived at Sheremetyevo Intl (MSK).
It is not showing details outside it’s coverage area.
Believe!

You sure ?
After all, true love means commitment and sacrifice….Plus he will only break your heart in the end. Prokhorov is a playboy and will never change no matter how hard you try to make him….
Don’t believe me… Just go ask Jerry25.
petro is the first and only player in facility.

He's been working out alone all summer
