The Art of the Deal
J.S.G. Boggs draws money for a living. What’s his exchange rate?
(Page 2 of 2)
A: I’ve bought everything with Boggs bills. Hot dogs, watches, airplane tickets, rent, clothing, jewelry–anything.
Q: Have you ever drawn a campaign contribution?
A: No, but I’ve drawn a charitable contribution. I drew a $1 bill, which I gave to the New York Dance Company as a donation valued at $1. They put it up for auction and sold it for $5,000. The person who bought it sold it for $10,000. Last I heard, the current owner was offered $25,000 but declined to accept it.
