Sounds like these guys are just rolling in it. $3k doesn't seem like it'd put them in the poor house, but clearly the 3rd party would have to be someone chef and fourseasons would feel is impartial and trustworthy, I saw biz volunteer. I'd volunteer as well but not sure fourseasons would be ok with that either. 

Even if chef shot the wrong buck, I don't see him taking it home without payment so there's obviously some deterrent there. Whats the point of shooting a 150 if you can't put it on your wall right?

Regardless if they are rolling in it or not. Would you as a business owner, allow someone you never met or know hold money. I highly doubt it.

Well lets change this around then and take the $$$ out of it. 

@Four Seasonsclaims hunting on his property is as challenging or at least close to as challenging as regular properties.. how about one of you guys invite him out to your place and see if he can tag a buck, any buck in a 3 day weekend. I'll bring the beers and @Robhuntandfishcan cook us some of his delicious food.

for this event there would have to be an admission fee.  lol

I think the money was asked for as a deposit because chef asked what would happen if he shot the wrong deer
 
 
oh I see four season answered
 
 
 

Answered or copped out. I think my offer of a 3rd party holder was fair

Also who wouldn’t ask that question in my situation. It is a fair and valid question that should be asked before I went in there. The truth is not asking that question would be irresponsible. He should be comforted by the fact that I cared enough about his investment to ask

Fair?   Would you be willing to let a third party you never met or know hold money on a 3k wagyu beef sale?

This feels like an elaborately trap. All these wealthy businessmen will end up hunting Chef

that goes both ways. Would you if you're chef allow a business you have no history with and who does business with an outstanding citizen like fourseason hold your 3 grand? The only answer is the 3rd party and that's to cover both sides of this "bet".

Be careful, you are assuming a fiduciary obligation and must account.  Scary times to be a fiduciary.

I'm not worried. No plans in opening an escrow account. Would just drive to the nearest casino and put it all on black for 1 spin. If i lose, i quit the forum. If i win, I got $3K cash for myself

One time the military overpaid me 18k one paycheck.. as a young 19 year old who was an hour drive away from a riverboat casino in Mississippi, it took a lot of discipline and self talk not to try the same thing! Still wish I woulda just sent it lol!

That kinda happened to me as a teenager. Stop & Shop the grocery store paid me at a supervisor rate. It was like $25/hour instead of my $8/hour and my Sunday/OT was $38/hour instead of $12/hour. I did the math and it worked out to 3 extra weeks of pay, so I quit immediately and got a job elsewhere. like 2-3 months later my friends who still worked there were notified they had to pay it back (a little each paycheck), but they never came after me!

Met a friend of my daughter last week, works for a local Gov as a tradesmen . He logs his hours and job number ect on the computer . He mistakenly put his six digit employee number , under “ hours “ . That came to a few million in pay , which wasn’t flagged at the time of entering it ! ok there’s 168 hours in a week, yet it excepted six figures .

it shut down all payments in the system , basically overdrawn I guess lol .

caused quite a brewhaha , they tried to write him up , but being smart he explained he was never trained on the computer or how to enter info .
