The reason I gave Jay a fixer-upper is so that he can gradually work with allies and friends to make things right. I don't want to make it too easy - like getting a billion pound cheque from the Bautista Foundation or something - but I expect Hatty will call on whatever expertise he's got available to him as time goes on.




As a charity it's not allowed to make a profit. If it makes a surplus however, that can be used for additional charitable endeavours.

As we'll see, the main problems at the moment are that its assets are all tied up in legal red tape, unable to be found, or else physically deteriorated properties. It's not just the Foundation building but a whole portfolio of derilict homes and overgrown parks.




I don't think Hatty's the kind to cut deals with criminals. He came as close as he ever would by taking a ride with Deadeyes.

And note that the Boss didn't offer any physical help. He knows that that would lead to eventual direct conflict with Klein, and if Klein knew about his interest in the Foundation she could threaten the Foundation to get the advantage of him. The same would presumably be true for Frankie.




He's been around long enough to have a few good resources, that's for sure.
