Resort Oh my god that is a boat lode of money! how do people make this much money but the economy sucks D:


becuase over 80% goes to paying the high ups. very little goes to helping the middle and lower class. welcome to capitalism.


They take more risk in their position and generally input some capital. Higher risk equals more money (potential)
