Howard and I did some business over 20 years ago, he's the furthest from being a dick or an idiot.  He's a brilliant employment lawyer and well versed in many areas.  He was a multi millionaire then so  imagine his worth today.  That car is chicken feed to him, you think he didn't know what he was doing by going on the front page of the Star?   He's extremely aggressive in business and knows exactly what he's doing in his every move.
I suggest you look in the mirror and rethink who's the dick and idiot here, among other adjectives that many posters have used to describe you.
