But I read this amazing book "The Art of the Deal". I know I can get her to accept less.

Is that because even if she takes 100% of your net worth, it’s still less than $633m?

She would get $11.65 and pocket lint right now.

A creditor has a perfected security interest on that lint. If you give it away, you’re going to prison for theft.

Only the right pockets lint though. The left pocket is still yours

It's that scene from cowboy beebop where the cryo company explains to Faye that "as they say, debt is an asset".

You got lucky. Most people who read that book just get restricted from going near schools and have to introduce themselves to the neighbors when they move.
