squire Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I believe my statement stands Tex, I spent a lot of years counseling business owners and one thing I've learned was people who know how to make money know how to keep it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weller_tex Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I believe my statement stands Tex, I spent a lot of years counseling business owners and one thing I've learned was people who know how to make money know how to keep it.I think these days there was a lot of fast money made...people that aren't responsible with their money (i.e. the flippers and people trying to buy up cases of whiskey without knowing what they really have). Those people have money, but they don't hang onto it. It'll be gone soon. That's what I was referring to... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restaurant man Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Buy or buy not. Some collector some where is completing the set. I'm much more frustrated by the continual dropping of age statements and price increases across all segments. My hope is the coming boom/bust cycle will solve this problem in another 5, 10, or 15 years.I can't wait to walk into the guys house who has all 144 (or whatever) half bottles of single oak :laugh: poor bastard can't open any of em or he destroys the completeness of his collection.

Brisko Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 The whole thing was stupid from the start. Package it as 15 minis (the equivalent of a 750) and price it in the $40 range. That way, you can actually compare them, and you could have the whole set for around $500. Plus you could sell the better versions in full-sized bottles.But it's obviously just another high end product with an interesting "story." Instead of a tornado or a trip on a ship, the story is about the trees. That's fine of course, and interesting, but let's not pretend it's an experiment-- if it were they would have limited the variables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
