RIP Burt Young

Hey there OG. So it’s a sad day and we have lost another person who has brought me great entertainment over the years. He was a boxer, actor and person who provided me with many occasions to laugh over the years. My favorite character had to be Paulie Pennino from Rocky. He always made me laugh with that one. But then there were other characters like Bobby ‘Love Machine’ Pig Pen in Convoy or Rodney Dangerfield’s bodyguard Lou in Back to School. There were so many others as his career spanned decades and he was in so many TV shows and Movies. Just thought I would say, RIP Burt Young, your presence on this planet made me happier.

He was one of my buddy’s client and traded S&P 500 at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange…Met him at the Field Museum of Natural History during a Christmas party in the early 80’s…
