Also, there is a story of a 16-year old black youth who was caught red-handed by Steinbrenner, painting grafitti on Yankee Stadium, back in about 1974. George had the kid locked up in the stadium's security room. Later, George had a talk with the kid, then let him be bat boy in that night's game. The kid still works for the Yankeees. He says Steinbrenner saved his life.
I'm guessing that if he was smart enough to make all that money he was also smart enough to establish trusts to make sure he didn't get fk'd by the govt.

Well, the Death tax is BS, punishing people for building wealth and no being able to leave it to their families, they have already been taxed on it..
