Good points....

There's no denying he was a very good money maker...Nobody can take that away from him....

But like you mentioned and even he mentions, he never started in the street doing anything, Michael himself says from day 1 his father told him he'd hear from someone downtown, and immediately meets with the acting boss...How many college students get that opportunity ??
