So losing a couple of million to bring a Cup to Buffalo should be no biggie.

How about this guy?
It took casino mogul Sheldon Adelson 11 years (counting from when he moved to Las Vegas n started taking bets) to make his first billion. But it’s the billions he’s made since that are rlly impressive. Just two years ago, according to our calculations, he was worth $3 billion. Then he took his Las Vegas Sands public. And now he’s been getting rich faster than, as far as we can tell, any1 in history.

Over the past two years Adelson has made $23.6 million a day—just under $1 million a hour. At that pace he’ll eclipse Bill Gates as the richest man in the country sometime in 2012, assuming Gates’ fortune grows at $2.5 billion a year (as it has for the past four years).
