Quoted from HELLODEADCITY:<P>should of yelled out to Gary when the lady Gaga pin is coming out <IMG title=

Lady Gaga is getting a WOZ by the way. Jack said that in one of his presentations.
Quoted from thedarkknight77:Great Story! Lady Gaga loves pinball? I must be living under a rock............How did you guys find this out?
Jack said at one of his presentations (probably in March) that she was getting a WOZ and would probably personally be coming to pick it up if my memory serves me correctly.
at the 1:15 mark of the part 3 of the video on this link, Jack States that Jimmy Fallon and Lady Gaga are customers and Gaga is going to come to their building.

Quoted from judremy:What I like about Jack vs Gary is that Jack is optomistic about the future of pinball while Gary is a bit "doom & gloom". Gary comes off talking about a hobby that is dying and that pinball is lucky to still be made at all. Jack sees it as a resurgence and a (hopefully) growing hobby. This is my perspective on them.
Also, I don't have a strong feeling that Gary will stay in the business very much longer. The way they are churning out games feels like he is doing a money grab before he sells off the company.
Quoted from TigerLaw:So, by upping the quality of his product, upping his production, diversifying his product for the home collector (LE models), and actually securing licenses people want to play . . . you take from that that he is somehow doing a pump and dump when there are ZERO strategic entities that appear situated to want to acquire a pinball company.
That logic makes little sense to me . . .
Stern will turn 67 years old this month. How long do you think he will stay in pinball? It seems like this is something that either he is somewhat hands-on or he must sell because the pinball business is too risky without monitoring your finances personally. There have been rumors for a while that he would not be around much longer.
Also, just about any profitable business is attractive to some potential investors.
Quoted from DCfoodfreak:You also just said on another thread the economy is going to blow up again. We need to cheer you up and get you more positive on things : )
I did not mean to sound like Stern would not exist. I just think Gary will be gone within the next few years.
Did you read the news this morning that Spain is about to get a 100 billion dollar bank bailout? Greece will likely get kicked out of the EU. Italy is in bad shape.
My 401k is flat-lining the last 3 years and I have been putting maximum contributions into it.
The interest rates are so damn low that the cash we have cannot even gain any interest. The stock market cannot do anything positive until the EU problems get sorted out which will take time after they make a decision on how to resolve it.
Thank goodness I have a good stable job. I feel sorry for the people that have less stable situations and have a hard time finding jobs after getting laid off, and God help the new college graduates in finding a job.
