1999
While people were worrying about the end of the world, how the Y2K bug was going to bring down the towers that technology built Argent was busy cashing in on those wishing to get out. Buying houses and companies on the cheap. It was easy to flip the ones he didn't want to make money or trade up.
2000 to 2005
With the popularity of poker on the rise in the country and the growing number of legal Native American casinos on the rise. The Professor moved most of his gambling dens into legitimate casinos. His highest state games would still be private invite only but there was money to be made off those who feel they have the touch because they watched a poker tournament.
During this time he continued to grow in the radio industry while most were moving to digital formats allowing him quite a bit of savings taking these lame ducks off the of the right hands.
2006 to 2014
With his hands full things fell into a good rhythm within the last decade. Happy with his small piece of the empire The Professor attends every gathering he is able to, meeting new kindred with a kind word or a offer of a friendly game of cards always looking for the next rising star or the next plummeting darling.
