    "Lenny Dykstra bought (the home) from Wayne Gretzky for $17.5 million.....Jeff Smith bought the home ...for close to the amount of money Dykstra owed Index, plus interest, between $600,000 and $700,000."

    sounds about right for this legendary investor

    Well, if he hasn't made a trade in 2 years that claim would be true.

  6. I think we can all agree that Lenny is a terrible investor, no matter if it is in real estate, magazines or deep ITM options :).

  9. Is just me or there is something so strange that it's unbelievable the amount of BS is promoted.

    Why do people with celebrity get these enormous lines of credit in the first place?

    I would like to hang around nails for a while just to watch the trail of drama the guy generates.

    He was always spinning something really obscure," Jurewicz says. "And you know how Lenny talks. 'Hey, bro, got this deal, man. I got to get you into a bird, man.' And you're like, 'Listen, chief, I want a check.'

    "He thinks he's a celebrity and doesn't have to pay for much. And people donate or else he can clip it.
