Winky Wright Quotes

Jim Wilkes is a like a father to me. He's a good friend. We have fun together, we golf together and we hang out. In fact, I just got off the phone with him and our relationship hasn't changed. He advised me, but I never paid him to be my adviser. He looks over me as a friend and will always do that. For people to say he will not, just is not true.

In my mind, I think they wanted too much money... I think it was just a ploy. I told them we'll do it 50-50. I ain't trying to take no money from him, but I won't let him take no money from me. Then it got to the point where they didn't want it 50-50. Then they wanted this and that. Then we even gave them a little better than 50-50 and they still didn't want to take it. He just wanted to keep his name out there. - Winky Wright
