Great Dub Taylor “Business” Definition wise quotation that I just saw on ISPNHD DirecTV from Bonanza 1970 episode “The Horse Traders” S11 E26

This certainly applies to the Coin Business (and others) where experience plays a huge role towards the success of a transaction.

👉 “Business is when a man with Money meets a man of Experience. The man with the Experience gets the Money. The man with the Money gets the Experience.” — Very True!! 😁😂🤣👍

    In my poker circle we still call multiple big hands “ The Bonanza”. In the TV show it wasn’t uncommeman to see a full house a four of a kind be beat by a straight flush. Poor Little Joe and Hoss they were always on the short end

    Dub - great character actor. His son Buck was Newly on Gunsmoke.

    The pardon is for tyrants. They like to declare pardons on holidays, such as the birthday of the dictator, or Christ, or the Revolution. Dictators should be encouraged to keep it up. And we should be encouraged to remember that the promiscuous dispensation of clemency is not a sign of political liberality. It is instead one of those valuable, identifying marks of tyranny.

    There are many ways to learn a thing.......

    Since the beginning of time the village elders have been trying to tell the village youngsters the way to do things. They do this out of benevolence and a sincere desire to help them avoid the pain of mistakes. Since the beginning of time, the youngsters know better, and chose to obtain their knowledge the hard way.

    I don't suppose we'll see this changing any time soon.

    @BryceM The School of Hard Knocks is often the best way to remember one’s own mistakes, and to learn to avoid repeating them. 😉

    Yep... learning comes the easy way or the hard way.... but innovation is the real 'bonanza'...This could take the form of new product, new process or concept....Then the story of how it happened becomes another tool for learning... Cheers, RickO

    Took awhile to find because it took awhile to remember. There is a showing on the digital airwaves somewhere.

    —————


    https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0042742/

    Mister 880 with Burt Lancaster, Dorothy McGuire, Edmund Gwenn, and many others. 1950.

    The movie is romantic comedy about the Secret Service search for a counterfeiter.

    Found this website with a good synopsis of the movie and it’s a spoiler alert (don’t look before you see the actual movie).

    "Mister 880" is a good film based on a true story but I am wondering what the "spoiler" in the website is.

    It is shown early in the film and in the film advertising that the Edmund Gwenn character is "Mister 880" the counterfeiter of one dollar bills.

    Awesome site you have!

    The spoiler is for all those who may have never seen the movie before. There are some that like to watch a movie without knowing anything about before it starts and how the story line develops. I’m one of them. :)

    Nowadays there aren’t too many new movies of interest and I’ve probably seen too many of the rest.

    For myself, I’m with the science (factual) type shows when nothing else is going on.

    @WillieBoyd2 You are most welcome! 😁

    Thanks also to you for recommending the movie 🎥 Mister 880!!🍿

    I watched it last night and really enjoyed it!!

    Burt Lancaster is one of my favorite actors, and Dorothy McGuire is always a pleasure to watch! 😉

    Edmund Gwenn Is great in this role as a Befuddled Senior Citizen, as he was playing Kris Kringle in ”Miracle on 34th Street.”
