Did anybody else see Marcus last night on TV?

The show on CNBC, The Profit? I'm still not sure what I thought about it and him. Kind of like a financial makeover show for failing business.
  • I saw last nights show and don't know how Marcus refrained from hitting the guy...I don't know if I could of held out that long. lol
  • If someone would like to discuss with me I am always available. I will ensure you are given the facts as the above posts seem misinformed. This is not the forum to correct them.
  • JRS & B.... People say this makes "Good Reality Television".

    I personally think

    good reality television is an oxymoron

    .


    X10! :B
  • AGI was out off money and terrible bond rating. I guess that was the purpose of merging with GS and changing the name. I suspect GS will go the way of CW. Slowly downward. GS service will go down as they cut bugets. I've been a GS member since 1988 but don't know how much longer. I suspect it will be the first time I need tow service.:h
  • Stephen Adams is the private equity owner of that whole operation. Marcus Lemonis is just a person he hired as the CEO. So the real brains behind what goes on financially rests with Adams, not Lemonis.

    And it is yet another example of too big to fail because they owe so many people so much money.

    But Lemonis makes a good front man being an orphan and all. His best real gig was as an Assistant General Manager for a huge Chevrolet dealership operation, which I believe was owned by his adopted father.

    People say this makes "Good Reality Television". I personally think good reality television is an oxymoron.

    Ya Think?! :B

    ""Camping World ~ Good Sam ~ Affinity ~ AGI all one in the same.
    "The FDIC estimates Affinity's failure will cost its deposit insurance fund $254 million." ....
    AGI failed to make a $6.2 million interest payment to bondholders,

    AGI announced that it was changing the company's name to Good Sam Enterprises.""


    When all else fails after you screw your investors, change your name.


    ""The Profit, a reality series with multimillionaire Marcus Lemonis turning around struggling companies""

    This is why I get a kick out everyone defending him on the forum and believing he actually sits and reads the GS posts and responds to them personally!
