At least (I’m guessing) you don’t have to worry about losing your manliness, or whatever ridiculous phrase was also thrown in MB’s direction regarding his age by that poster. Talk about an offensive comment.

Actually it’s a threat when you imply a lot of other things to go along with it….

If you were not very kindly doing the QFP thing for the benefit of everyone else, your number would be far lower!

Remember, you’re trying to reason with someone who keeps defaming someone who was acquitted of attempted murder.

Yeah, not interested in going there again, Sdel.
She negotiated a favorable deal by saying she would not travel back from Florida if the apartment was not included. He agreed to the deal.
Only after he was threatened.

And defaming lawyers by accusing them of lying under oath…

So who thinks QFPing is a benefit to the threads, MHM? You?

Exactly. Threatened with losing her as a client.

At some point on the future when all the trials are over and Michael is a free man, I believe he will speak out. I think it will be healing for him to share the truth, shed light on how he was convinced to take on these grifters, and set the record straight about how and why things went downhill so quickly. Who knows, perhaps there will even be a book deal? For sure it will be a cautionary tale, not just for those in the horse business but for anyone dealing with narcissistic people. And when that happens, I don’t imagine the picture painted of the Kanareks / RG will be pretty.

Of course. He could have testified, and it would have been useful wrt his state of mind.
But he didn’t want to expose himself to cross examination.

I would probably not have called it that, but sure, OK.
I was thinking more along the lines of the classes she would be able to enter and the other exhibitors she would have to compete against in that case.

I think it’s highly beneficial. Keeps the conversation honest. There are usually plenty of likes on QFP post so I know others agree.

Reminds me of a colleague who was approached by the local humane society to do spays for 1/2 what he was charging with a “certificate” from them.
He pointed out that he was already doing the surgery at a loss with what he charged, and they suggested that with their 1/2 peice vouchers, he could do more of them!

Let’s think about this though. They returned from Florida in March or April of 2019. Then in May of 2019, LK bought Jay-T from MB for $40,000 … if I recollect correctly.
Things got uglier and uglier from there on out.
Now I don’t know this for a fact… but… I think it’s reasonable to conclude it was worth retaining her as a client while there was a possible horse sale in the works. But once the horse sale went through, she was less valuable as a client. As things began to get exceptionally difficult and ugly in July… boy oh boy was she less worthwhile to keep on as a client at the farm. And thus, by the end of the summer of 2019, LK threatening to leave MB? Uhhh… that held no power anymore.
PERHAPS that’s why she actually DIDN’T threaten to leave come August, and instead, tried to assert herself in other ways.

If there was a written agreement, it would have specified a notice period to raise the fees. If there’s no contact, he may have been able to raise them on short notice. My board contracts were always 30 days notice, but on several occasions board was raised with less notice. I scowled and paid.
Surely a barn owner is not locked in to a fixed board fee forever in the absence of a contract.

Well, it seems to depend quite a bit on the source. Some people take everything IM said as gospel, for example.
