Well, I think that in all of the world the ones that draw the most money are athletes (especially the team or members of soccer or basketball), if only a normal person could win nose to say, not half but if a part of it That they win they would have to live quietly for a long time haha

Owning a team for 24 years is a very long time. The revenue looks good there.
Getting a team like that, one with over a billion in money, is a big investment. A bit risky, but at the end all of them are. You never know when things, wont go your way

Yes it is like Mober say this is a very big investment and who knows if it is successful, I personally think a lot better thing to buy with so much money is some real estate projects or some land. I do not understand this sports business very well but to me it looks risky investment

yeah i tend to agree with some of the thoughts posted above, shelling out more than $1.5 billions for a sports team does look like an investment only for the pros of this type of investments, to me just buying some rental properties and hiring a property manager does look the safer option.
Buying a command is not bad at all .... if someone buys a command, then he is interested in good results ..... accordingly he will invest money in the team and buy good players ... for fans of Houston this is good news ... then their The command will be among the best
