"“John is a high roller. He is not afraid of betting big,” George Armoyan said. “John has a lot more balls than I do. The biggest difference between John and I: John is not afraid of debt. I hate debt.”"

"For guests, access to Risley’s boats, lodges, and planes is apparently always free. “He’s the most generous person you’ll ever meet—to a fault,” George Armoyan said. “It would be nice just to recover your costs. I couldn’t do what he does. I was the beneficiary of some of these [free trips]. But I felt very awkward.”"
