That would seem to make sense...will it happen? I wouldn't bet on it.Can't Mark Davis fork in a few more millions? If he does, that will get him a good score from the community. Goodwill donation!
It's about time right....How about SA he still has about 650m to play with now. So a couple mil wouldn't hurt.
Rich guys don't get rich by being generous. That said, who knows what SA is thinking at this point in his life? Would be incredibly awesome, and cast him in a completely different light than most see him in, if he just whipped out the ol' checkbook and said, "How much more do you need?"How about SA he still has about 650m to play with now. So a couple mil wouldn't hurt.
SA said the stadium was a legacy project for his family so this would be the same just on a smaller scale.
The current list of billionaires that live in Las Vegas:
Sheldon Adelson
Nancy Laury Walton (Walmart)
Phil Ruffin (Casinos real estate)
Steve Wynn
Elaine Wynn
Frank Fertitta
Lorenzo Fertitta
There are also another half dozen who have very close ties to Las Vegas but are not listed as residents of Las Vegas.
Don't forget about the Bigelows (donated before, heiress still lives in Vegas) and the owners of Panda express (have lived in Vegas since 2012)
We might not be able to get Wynn on board, but his ex wife ( also a billionaire) is a huge supporter of southern Nevada education.
We care about the program and want it to grow. It's not a big deal that we are identifying locals who have the money to donate. In many cases, people with this type of money do want to contribute to causes and local community.Just love the way so many people are ready and willing to step up and spend other people's money around here.
Pistol. I love the contributions you put forward on the board.Just love the way so many people are ready and willing to step up and spend other people's money around here.
Not irked. Just an observation. We are all part of the community not just the rich. Imagine the community pride if 1,000,000 peeps put in a measly $7.50. Bam! Or 500,000 put in $15.00. Bam! Or 250,000 put in $30. Bam! Or 125,00 put in $60. Bam! Or some combination of the above. Bam! Done. ✅Pistol. I love the contributions you put forward on the board.
Why does talking about potential donors irk you? How do get high level donations unless you identify and target people who have the money and have a stake in the community? These people are part of the Las Vegas community and may want to help foster a part of it.
BTW, a $2.5M donation by a billionaire ($1B) is the same as a donation of $375 by a person with $150K net worth.Not irked. Just an observation. We are all part of the community not just the rich.

Based on that equation I can donate $0.04 moreBTW, a $2.5M donation by a billionaire ($1B) is the same as a donation of $375 by a person with $150K network worth.
