Hi Matt, I'm wondering how many people are behind the Mall, what the order
statistics are, and how much the income is. If the Mall is just a secondary job,
and you donate a considerable excess amount, then I have to respect, but also
criticize that.
Frankly, I think that's none of your business. Why do you consider
the inner workings of a private business should be public knowledge?
I don't consider that. I was just wondering.
yes... "private business"... speaks for itself...
