You know, like Bill did! There are young ladies that love that stuff, too. I think I read that somewhere... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al drafted Jamarcus Russell Don’t forget he was paid too before the rookie wage scale was approved—so the Raiders had to pay him through the nose for that hot mess on the field lol.

aristocrat Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 There’s gotta be some embezzlement or something here right? Did they take the loans out and blow the cash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a lender, I would never make the loan without the personal guarantee. That is Lending 101. You don’t give them the money unless you know they are fully committed and can’t just wash their hands and walk away. but the personal guarantee must be reasonable and not lead to personal financial ruin if the business fails, as that happens often.

According to whom? It is what it you, you guarantee the debt and you are responsible. For all of it, even if there are other guarantors you personally are jointly and severally liable for the entire amount. There is no “reasonable” limitation. That’s why you don’t take it lightly.

That's the whole point of having a business entity to begin with...to protect YOU PERSONALLY from this type of stuff. How the hell did his business attorneys allow this? I'm guessing they were in a situation where they couldn't borrow the money to open the dealership without personal guarantees. Without the guarantees, the effort to buy/build the dealership would have collapsed. Hungry to make the deal happen, Pierce signed the guarantee. It's not clear to me if Peirce was the only one to sign a guarantee. There's nothing criminal or underhanded here. Just a catastrophic business failure. From the sounds of it, Pierce is screwed.
