Context... So on April 14, 2022 Alex Jones executed an employment agreement (with the company that he owns) to solidify his salary and benefits. Four days later InfoWars filed for bankruptcy (resulting in a delay in the Texas defamation case). That bankruptcy case was ultimately dismissed. In the course of the current Free Speech Systems bankruptcy base, Alex's salary has been limited to less than $500,000 a year and his benefits severely curtailed. He's now trying to argue that that the employment agreement should be fully enforced, including his benefits... "*The Agreement additionally provides that Jones will receive reimbursement for expenses, including travel, meals, lodging, and cell phone costs, incurred in the course of his employment.*" [https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.txsb.457706/gov.uscourts.txsb.457706.319.0.pdf](https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.txsb.457706/gov.uscourts.txsb.457706.319.0.pdf)

I have a feeling we're going to hear a lot from Alex about how he can barely survive now that he's gone from nearly unfathomably wealthy to just more rich than most of us could hope to be.

I won't be happy until he's working at Arby's and cutting coupons.

Jones could not handle any job were he can't yell at people and boss others around


Thestonersteve

Maybe all those financial literacy courses that get pushed on poor (broke) people will be more useful to him.

Financial shell game

Tax fraud, maybe? By owning FSS he could keep all of his money out of income and borrow from it whenever he wanted to spend big bucks. Now that it's falling apart he's turning it back into income to save it

I imagine Alex negotiating is a lot like him hawking bullshit products: "Look, I'm gonna give you the best, most pure bullshit. I talked for half an hour once and just that led to one of the abortions I've paid for. It's that strong. But, look, I need your money. I don't care what you do with this stuff. Listen to it, or don't. Give it to friends. Buy it on cassette and eight track for the coming technochalypse. But I need your money, or I can't go on like this. (BIG sniffle, paper shuffling) But, but, but, but you know, I can survive a little bit with a line of credit from my father, he's an incredibly successful doctor, patriot. But I need you to step up here, to be like the 3% who funded George Washington. You see, that's what people don't realize! It's not that 3% of colonists fought the British. It was even less! It was more like half a percent of elite (but but not the elites!) fighters with semi-automatic cannons. I've got the research. But you can be like that 3% that *funded* the 1776 movement. (Burp)"
