that might explain the mad dash of daddio to the patio to remove the camera that was recording everything, or not, because it was conveniently shut off, disappeared, and deleted?

It sounds like more than half the stalls were not producing income. In addition to her $5,000 monthly board, LK paid him $40,000 for Jay-T. That might have kept the barn afloat for a month or two.

LOL
do we know if the check cleared?
Maybe that was the reason the horse could not leave the barn: It was not paid in full yet.

I find it interesting that some here believe MBās only source of income was from stalls being filled with training horses.

Really? Who said that?
Even if you have tons of clinic income, using your clinic income to support the expense of maintaining half the horses in the barn is a huge drain.
How many stalls were filled with paying boarders? Besides LK?
no words.

How do you know half the horses were not producing income? most trainers donāt own a lot of the horses in the barn, clients buy them and pay for board and full trainingā¦even if they themselves donāt ride them.

This entire āmoney issueā story has come from one person only. It is fascinating how some things she promoted have become gospel, while the majority of her comments have been proven to be exaggerations and fantasy.
If there has been a drain on MBās liquid wealth, it is primarily due to high dollar defense attorneys, worth every cent by the way. The FL facility is intact and thriving by all accounts. Sure doesnāt sound like financial issues to me.

Iām not sure the barn had just 25 stalls, but You are talking about half, or less, of the stalls and forgetting field accommodation for young horses. The young horses, iirc lived out with a shed, so were not taking up stalls, for one thing.

Tarshis made it very, abundantly clear that MB was a āunicornā among horse people, having kept himself and his business financially sound.

Did you read the post of OhnoO? She said that MHG owned 8, and RC half interest in two more (go owned with MHG and MB. And that wasnāt counting any free or reduced board horses of the working students or of MB himself.

To say MB needed LK financially is absurd. LKās 5k monthly payment made up for 10 percent of his monthly expenses according to testimony. He could have rented each stall she used and the apartment for well over 5k. It sounds as though MB gave her a very reasonable rate and she took total advantage of it.

MHG has trained and sold horses for many years. She does not strictly board. LKās horses brought no commission or income for MB.

Indeed. There is a reason I have contacts.

So how many horses in the barn were owned by paying boarders? Not MHG, MB, RC or the working students?
