Unless he has another business venture planned, which is of course quite possible, I very much doubt he "needed the money". The Forbes valuation is very misleading. In truth his assets value and the money he has access to is quite a lot more than $1bn.

The Forbes valuation is misleading on the basis of what? What are they missing?

And having another business venture planned is a pretty valid reason for needing the money, which is why I suggested it. Who knows what he's planning.

You can't tell me you don't think Randy has secured off shore accounts that aren't accounted for by Forbes. Let's be real, Randy is loaded and will forever be so. The Browns are just an awful organization and the fans are fed up with mediocrity. Randy knows its a stale investment. However, he is planning on keeping a 30% stake. I think he just wants out of the spotlight so that someone else can do the manipulating .

Well his sporting assets alone are worth over one and a quarter billion dollars, then his cash holdings, bank of america stock, various property portfolios and other businesses and his access to a multi billion dollar trust fund add up to a hell of a lot more than what Forbes list him as worth.
There are grey areas in their criteria. It's not an exact science.

I take the point it is not an exact science, but if you reckon the Forbes valuation is way out - and you might be right - it'd be good to know on which basis, or we're just swapping one inaccurate valuation for another one.

re selling the Browns ... didn't he run them on behalf of his family? Maybe it is his mother or sister who really wants out.

Anybody else heard the Defoe rumours? That Agent ITK on twitter reckons we've bid 6m. Spurs want 8m? I never listen to twitter rubbish but this poster is never too far off.
