Who do you think would be a good replacement for Jay? Is there anybody who could get us out of the mess we're in right now thanks to him?

Sell the purple palace

With Jay’s long overdue departure, sell that monstrosity of a building and move the office to cheaper real estate. No longer do we need to be located in his backyard.
