getting abused</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> Patty's</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">abuse</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> call me all sorts of</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> names you</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">know who I am who do you think you are I</font> know who your father<font color="#E5E5E5"> is but that doesn't</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">give</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> you a

me anymore <font color="#E5E5E5">and I looked at my guy said can I answer</font> he<font color="#CCCCCC"> said I said no I</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> don't want to buy</font> chickens from you I mean you would have <font color="#E5E5E5">thought this was like a the</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> biggest deal</font> in the<font color="#CCCCCC"> world right a</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> couple of pounds of</font> chickens it<font color="#E5E5E5"> was always over that so but</font> you<font color="#E5E5E5"> know in</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> that world everything is</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">very technical</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> they make a mountain out</font> of a molehill<font color="#CCCCCC"> and you know that think</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">Patrick at that meeting what wish would</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">happen at these sit downs the old-timers</font> were very technical for instance rules of a<font color="#CCCCCC"> sit-down</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> let's</font> make you on a you<font color="#E5E5E5"> and I</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> a made guys</font> we're having an argument<font color="#E5E5E5"> you'll lying</font> through your teeth<font color="#CCCCCC"> lying every other</font> word is a lie if I call you a<font color="#E5E5E5"> liar I</font> lose the argument automatically if I get <font color="#E5E5E5">upset with you</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> and lose my temper I lose</font> them the argument automatically you got to know how<font color="#E5E5E5"> to keep your mouth shut</font> you got to be able to outsmart that person right<font color="#CCCCCC"> and don't let him</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> make</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> you</font> fall into<font color="#E5E5E5"> a trap because</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> a lot of</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> times</font> if an<font color="#E5E5E5"> old-timer was wrong he's trying to</font> get you<font color="#E5E5E5"> into a trap so on technicalities</font> you lose so I'm starting<font color="#CCCCCC"> to figure this</font> out here so I said look I don't<font color="#E5E5E5"> want to</font> buy chickens from you<font color="#E5E5E5"> anymore it's</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> just</font> but I'm gonna do whatever my boss tells <font color="#E5E5E5">me</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> to do he tells me to</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> buy him I'm</font> gonna buy<font color="#E5E5E5"> him I said I'm a good</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> soldier</font> in that<font color="#E5E5E5"> regard back and forth back and</font> forth I took all the abuse<font color="#CCCCCC"> and at the</font> end of the day<font color="#E5E5E5"> I didn't have to pay him</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">for</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> the chickens but I had to continue</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">buying chickens from that was the</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">compromise right so now I get in a car</font> and they turn<font color="#CCCCCC"> around and he starts</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">yelling at me</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> for a minute and there all</font> of<font color="#E5E5E5"> a sudden everything is silent</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> there's</font> the boss and my capo regime and they crack up laughing like this<font color="#E5E5E5"> was the</font> biggest funniest thing he said you Paulie<font color="#CCCCCC"> I said I never</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> seen Paulie get so</font> mad<font color="#CCCCCC"> over chickens he said you happen to</font> do that<font color="#CCCCCC"> bubble</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> bud and they were all</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">will at a good time over</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> but what I</font> learned<font color="#E5E5E5"> at</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> that point I learned just</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">about these technicalities and how you</font> got<font color="#E5E5E5"> to keep your head</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">a meeting</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> like that you got to learn to</font> outsmart people you got to<font color="#CCCCCC"> be able to</font> read the room<font color="#E5E5E5"> you know I learned that</font> whenever<font color="#E5E5E5"> I went into a meeting</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> like this</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">I tried to learn that the</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> personality</font> the character<font color="#CCCCCC"> of the person</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> I was up</font> against<font color="#E5E5E5"> John Gotti for instance you can</font> never let John Gotti think that you want an argument<font color="#E5E5E5"> his ego wouldn't allow it</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> so</font> you had to figure out<font color="#CCCCCC"> a</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> way to</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> outsmart</font> him to make him think he won but<font color="#CCCCCC"> you</font> actually got what you want<font color="#E5E5E5"> and when you</font> can master<font color="#E5E5E5"> that art you'll do pretty</font> good<font color="#CCCCCC"> and you know</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> whatever I did</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> in my</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">whole life I was able to apply that</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> to</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">business</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> in life now so that was my</font> first but you know they<font color="#E5E5E5"> got over</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> me a</font> little<font color="#E5E5E5"> bit but we kind of</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> compromised</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">but it was a big lesson for me because</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">that was my first</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> major sit-down against</font> a major guy<font color="#E5E5E5"> so Michael let me ask you</font> this<font color="#E5E5E5"> so in my world</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> I'm in obviously a</font> lot of<font color="#E5E5E5"> times you'll</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> be in a</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> board and</font> you're<font color="#E5E5E5"> negotiating with</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> somebody and you</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">know somebody in the</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> room isn't telling</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">the truth what</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> is</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> the benefit of not</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">calling</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> that out</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> well you know or is it</font> a<font color="#E5E5E5"> different world than the world you</font> were in well in my<font color="#E5E5E5"> world you I mean you</font> can pay serious consequences you can't be disrespectful<font color="#CCCCCC"> in that life Patrick</font> you know two made guys two guys<font color="#CCCCCC"> that</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">actually took the oath you can never</font> disrespect one another<font color="#E5E5E5"> never</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> I</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> mean you</font> know<font color="#CCCCCC"> they were made guys could never</font> disrespect never<font color="#E5E5E5"> nice respect so what</font> does this respect mean calling a guy a name calling him a liar raising<font color="#E5E5E5"> your</font> voice<font color="#CCCCCC"> to him</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> really yeah a made guy</font> cannot<font color="#CCCCCC"> - a made guy no that's that's a</font> major because<font color="#E5E5E5"> the life allegedly is</font> built on<font color="#E5E5E5"> respect</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> so you can never</font> disrespect anybody it can never outwardly do it like I'll be honest<font color="#CCCCCC"> well</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">I had a I had a meeting</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> what another</font> made guy wants and he's trying<font color="#E5E5E5"> to get</font> involved<font color="#CCCCCC"> in a gas</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> business and I'm</font> trying<font color="#E5E5E5"> to keep him out he was a guy from</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">my own</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> family but he was trying to make</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">a deal with God he to bring them into</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">the business</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> and</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> I didn't want so I said</font> can I<font color="#CCCCCC"> talk to you a minute and this</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> guy</font> is doing<font color="#E5E5E5"> life</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> in prison</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> right now so we</font> go in the other<font color="#CCCCCC"> room</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> and we get in the</font> other<font color="#E5E5E5"> room</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> I called him every name in</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">the Sun</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> when</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> we walk out</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> we shaking</font> hands<font color="#CCCCCC"> you're</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> the best guy in the world</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> I</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">wouldn't let anybody see it because now</font> if he told anybody I called him<font color="#E5E5E5"> that I</font> call him a liar<font color="#CCCCCC"> so they had to</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> believe</font> me you mean<font color="#E5E5E5"> the same way they had</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> to</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">believe</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> him</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> so he would never try to</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">challenge that but</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> no in that

about two</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">months</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> later he</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> calls me</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> up he says hey</font> chief he says we're<font color="#CCCCCC"> gonna</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> be in a movie</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">business</font> that's what do you know about movies I don't worry it's easy we<font color="#CCCCCC"> got a script</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">and all this kind of stuff don't</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> worry</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">buddies just send me eighty-three</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">thousand you'll be my partner ice all</font> right so I sent him eighty-three thousand dollars and<font color="#E5E5E5"> we produced</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> this</font> movie called mausoleum which was a horror movie<font color="#CCCCCC"> right</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> PS the end result is</font> a million dollars later<font color="#E5E5E5"> we produced this</font> movie a<font color="#E5E5E5"> horror movie</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> that didn't scare</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">anybody but me I'd be honest with you</font> but but but<font color="#E5E5E5"> that's how I backed into the</font> movie<font color="#CCCCCC"> business and then from there</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> I</font> realized right away<font color="#E5E5E5"> I'll tell you what</font> you remember Golan and Globus anybody remember that<font color="#E5E5E5"> name Peter Guber would</font> have<font color="#E5E5E5"> told you all about them there were</font> two guys they had a<font color="#E5E5E5"> company and they</font> were doing<font color="#E5E5E5"> all</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> of these you</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> know kind of</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">exploitation films so I spent a million</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">dollars on this film so I go and see</font> them they had offices<font color="#E5E5E5"> in</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> New York I said</font> hey I<font color="#E5E5E5"> got this film we spent a</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> million</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">dollars and he said</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> okay he said we'll</font> give you 25 grand<font color="#CCCCCC"> I said I don't think</font> you heard<font color="#CCCCCC"> me I said I said I spent</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> a</font> million dollars<font color="#E5E5E5"> on this he said I will</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">give you 25</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> grand</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> that was it</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> so I said</font> no thank<font color="#E5E5E5"> you so</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> I'd take</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> the film it but</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">that's when I realized you had to be in</font> the distribution<font color="#E5E5E5"> business so I bought a</font> distribution company at<font color="#E5E5E5"> that point and</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">how I started to get involved in the</font> film but in this way back when<font color="#E5E5E5"> on an</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">accident on a mistake because I didn't</font> pay attention<font color="#CCCCCC"> I just sent them</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> the money</font> I didn't<font color="#E5E5E5"> look into anything and I didn't</font> research anything<font color="#E5E5E5"> I</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> just trust the jury</font> and you<font color="#CCCCCC"> know I almost got destroyed on</font> that film<font color="#CCCCCC"> did it end</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> up being profitable</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">sheriff</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> yeah so saving Jerry's life made</font> your money<font color="#CCCCCC"> yes a lot of</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> headaches but it</font> made me money yes it was worth<font color="#CCCCCC"> saving</font> his life<font color="#CCCCCC"> like with</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> Michael let me ask</font> you this<font color="#CCCCCC"> you know</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> running a</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> business a</font> lot<font color="#CCCCCC"> of</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> people who run a business

color="#CCCCCC"> you would tell me you guys</font> got soldiers<font color="#E5E5E5"> you guys got earners right</font> what is the difference between a personality<font color="#E5E5E5"> of a soldier
