Whereas if Chuck had asked for a much more reasonable $1 million he might have stood a plausible if still very unlikely chance at getting an offer to go away for $100K or so.

$1 mill is still a really, really steep asking price. You have to basically be a beloved humanitarian accused to Satanic Child Sacrifice to show $1M in damages to your image.

But yeah, your point holds. If he hadn’t set the bar so high, he’d be counting $50-100K in “Go-Away Money” right now and chortling to himself.

Instead, he’s about to lose everything he owns, or ever will own.
