National Lampoon Inc. Has a Market Cap of 4 million. Ok he has some interest in some movie residuals. I guess. Two restaurants maybe another 4 million. The magazine. Maybe a circulation worth 200 thousand. Ok so maybe net income of 5 mil. Unless he has some deep familial pockets like Rockefeller Carnegie or something. The guy can't afford to pony up 300 million 150 million maybe 50 million...

Maybe he can organize a group of wealthy guys who eat at his places but he would be and owner like George Bush was the Owner of the Texas Rangers....Figure Head...
