He lost his friends and family here for a few cigars. Neal said it best about integrity.

It could have been far more than that Chris. When all of his previous transactions were brought up for a possible review (post #60), I think he panicked and bailed out on his agreed refund with Jesus & Don...he hasn't been seen here since that day. If you look at all those deals that took place, and if any or all were deemed questionable, that could have run into a lot of money.He lost his friends and family here for a few cigars.

...perhaps, but it's nothing that couldn't have been taken care of with honesty, time, and solid communication. "I can't repay you this month, but I will next month" isn't a optimum answer, but if it's the truth, and followed up on and executed as stated, it becomes an "all ends well" situation.Lose of Integrity aside, this could be a simple matter of finances.
Well sort of....This whole thing is a bummer. While he's not the first to just walk away from the board when things didn't go the way he had hoped, I hope he realizes that without resolution this fiasco will follow him around to other boards.

You're 100% right Tom...but he's not thinking like that. He should have worked out a payment plan between the 2 of them at worst....but I think the whole venture overwhelmed him and he just walked away, an act befitting a much younger person. Unfortunately, this wouldn't be the first time this happened in any walk of life...I'm sure quite a few of us here have seen far worst happen for far less, and all we can do is shake our heads....perhaps, but it's nothing that couldn't have been taken care of with honesty, time, and solid communication.

Might have been costly, but when a reputation is on the line, personally, I'd have figured out a way to make things right all the way around.
