You know, it's possible to go bust in business without being a bad person.
 
maybe... but it's irresponsible and immoral to be investing money in a "hobby" when you're not paying your contractors within months of their providing services... and yes I know many a small supplier/tradie who has waited over six months to get reimbursed by century city. Having worked in both the Wgtn trades industries and done accounts I know Terry S was a bad name around town way before the Nix even got up and running. sure we enjoy the Phoenix but what about guys who can't meet their rent or pay their own taxes simply cause Terry is putting his money elsewhere. I cringe at much of the blinkered one sidedness on here. Sure Terry did a great thing as far as football goes... but their is more to life & it's possible to do one great thing without being a decent person
