DT called with a sparkle in his voice.
They (he and Michael Harrington) expect to have a solid offer for the mine of $50MM within the next week or two. Probably net $40MM after fees & taxes, to be split between Michael and David 25/75. David's share: $30MM. His plan is to reinvest 10MM+ of this in Michael's high-yield investment plan (e.g., $10MM becomes $100MM in short time). If he invests $20MM in that, he'd have $10MM to "live on" - hopefully to share a bit with me.
We'll see.
I just might be figuring out how to apply the "windfall" money in the ways I thought of way back 5-6 years ago.
Notes on David's call:
- AUWorth is the entity Michael Harrington is working with. They are a Canadian company which is domiciled in the Caribbean somewhere. They buy land/mines in North America.
- Michael will submit his proposal (on DT's behalf) within the next 7 days; the escrow would close no later than March 15th
- They might decide to accept Swiss Francs as payment; he mentioned also possibly Singapore (dollars?).
- DT mentioned that I could develop a "template" for high-end investors/non-profits to participate in the Timpson Foundation humanitarian efforts.
- DT was pleased that they don't require a "43-101" * but added that Michael will be doing it anyway, as a "plan B" in case this deal should fall through.
Here's what Michael H sent to DT today:
