Yes, he was bambozzled like a 3 year old red headed brat in the Mall being promised a big bag of candy if he behaved! And unlike Wikipedia, the Court Transcript where he says he was taken in and had no clue about anything (especially the Corporate HQ under the Lube Rack in a local garage) is FACTUAL. As in A FACT. Though you seem to have no clue about what is a fact, jimmy!
And all those myths and fables are unsubstantiated! And Hughes had a lot of people working him, like drivers, butlers, maids etc. I am sure IBM was NOT a maid. Maybe just a gopher. Would his lack of wealth after that "job" indicates so????
