I think the nuisance is that these people are smart in their area but that doesn't mean they are smart in all other areas. You don't become a billionaire/millionaire without some smarts (and luck and some help from parents). But you just had to see how many big brain entrepreneurs thought they were also epidemiologists during 2020.
Plenty of folks who have become successfully wealthy, did so in spite of their parents. Plenty. But yipe for sure having a very smart business acumen doesn't automatically translate into other areas of life. Politics being another obvious example.
If Nick Mowbray is sprouting anti trans stuff he probably shouldn't then be a part owner of an Auckland A League club. But doesn't mean I can't like his story of going to China as a virtual kid from his folks Waikato dairy farm, and creating a massive toy company with his siblings.
Anyway AV is saying Williams & Mowbray are likely 2nd choice to the Mitchell bid. Hopefully the American has no controversial skeletons in his internet history. I want an Auckland club to happen.
