If not, how much would you counteroffer?

We'll talk. Come to my office. Maybe we'll get it in writing first.

Make that 100 million. We'll find the poorest neighborhood with the poorest schools and fund them, hospitals, housing. A new cause of my choosing every week.

You however will get nothing in return.

The only favor you get, is me not blowing the whistle on you. Remember we have it in writing that you tried to bribe me. So long.

No. I never took any money. It's their money, they are giving it to charity.

I mean, technically you could call it blackmail. Either they do that or I call them out publicly. Shrug
