The Spirits of St. Louis.

They make about $15 mil per year despite the fact that they folded 35 years ago and have zero expenses.

That is pretty awesome.

I laughed out loud when the NBA refused to pay them 8 million to buy it out.

Yeah, the current TV contract guarantees the owners $100 mil. I'm sure the next one will score them at least double that.

Best investment evar!

I had a dream. It was an incredible dream. When I awoke, I had a huge mess to clean up.

Don't be a noob, of course they have expenses. They have to take the check to the bank - that probably takes some gas...
