Open source transcript

I ESTIMATE THE ODDS AT A 70% CHANCE THINGS GO WELL, AND A 30% CHANCE WE LOSE MONEY ON THE DEAL.

IF WE LOSE MONEY, WILL YOU ADMIT YOU WERE WRONG?

HOW COULD I BE WRONG? I'M JUST TELLING YOU THE ODDS.

IF WE LOSE MONEY, THAT'S ON YOU FOR RECOMMENDING IT.

UM... NO. I'M TELLING YOU THE ODDS AND LETTING YOU DECIDE.

BUT YOU'RE THE ONE SAYING THIS IS SUCH A GREAT DEAL.

I'M ONLY TELLING YOU THE ODDS, YOU PEA-BRAINED IGNORAMUS!!!

SO, YOU WON'T ADMIT YOU WERE WRONG?
