Nice to know. Hopefully the club thing will work out for him...
Speaking of Jermaine: wasn't this guy on the edge of going bankrupt a few years back? I remember reading an article where they confiscated his cars and house, if I remember right (I think it was somewhere around 2003).

there was a problem with his taxes, so the IRS was seizing his property. I think it was just a fuck up and it's all settled now.

^^^^Yeah, you're right. It had something to do with the IRS. Probably tax-evasion if my memory serves me right. Good to hear he's got it all worked out...
