Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deset Gled" data-source="post: 9137974" data-attributes="member: 7808">Unrelated to Don's info that just came out, I have this update.Justin Lanasa is not humble about his money.  This is not news.  He likes to brag about his wealth.  Examples:[ATTACH=full]296046[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]296047[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]296045[/ATTACH]And for those that aren’t aware, he’s not lying about the fact that he is financially quite comfortable.  In addition to NuTSR and the DHSM, he owns a tattoo parlor and vape shop that each have multiple locations, as well as his other tourist trap museum, and a respectable portfolio of investment properties.  He’s done a good job of buying real estate at low prices, either by getting into developments early, or buying at opportune moments (in one case, when the previous property owner was murdered). Most of this is spread across North Carolina, with the DHSM being the outlier in Wisconsin.  He also likes to brag about his collection of toys in the form of vehicles, guns, and other stuff.But it looks like Justin’s actions may be starting to finally bite him in the wallet.  Going through public records, I have found evidence that Lanasa has liquidated at least $100k in the past four months.  This includes a couple of his “toy” military vehicles.  But more importantly, it includes a couple of his investment properties.  Justin has been building his real estate portfolio for ~20 years now, and near as I can tell this is the first time he’s been forced to sell any of it off.  No doubt a huge chunk of this is to pay for his legal fees, both against Hasbro and for his bankruptcy attorneys for NuTSR.To be sure, Lanasa isn’t broke.  The properties he’s sold aren’t his most valuable ones, and he still has his other businesses.  But this is a pretty substantial turn in his finances.  The cracks are starting to show.Just for the record, I’m learning all this from publicly available documents, and I will not share too many details to avoid doxing.</blockquote>
