Gus intended to leave the money, because if he doesn't, then Lalo knows that he got tipped off which potentially exposes Nacho as his mole inside Lalo's side of the organization. But having to watch $700M of his money get scooped up by the Feds to keep that cover is still hard to stomach and obviously ratcheting up his anger with the Salamanca's.

$700K

$700M in the financial world is $700,000. $7,000,000 would be written as $700MM.

$700MM would be $700,000,000 not $7,000,000 using that nomenclature.

in Roman numerals
MM = a thousand thousands = a million
M = thousand

MM is pretty common, but the single M is less common for meaning thousand. But ok yes he could have been using that. I just didn't want anyone thinking it was $700 million.

You say MM = a million but then say $700MM in that nomenclature would be $700,000,000. You're contradicting yourself, no?

Ah, thank you! So Gus did want them to have the money. Thanks!

No.

700 million
700MM

All the same

This is a person unfamiliar with the finance world. Nor are the 4 that starred it. M as thousands is extremely common if you operate in that circle. Clearly there wasn't $700MM in the bag, sherlock.

Yes there are two common abbreviations.

One is based on Roman numerals where M is 1000 and MM is a million. Commonly used in oil and gas and finance circles.

The other has K for 1000 and M for a million. It is more common in computer lingo based on Kb and Mb or KB and MB. Although it's not actually 1000 for K because it is 2^10 or 1024. But some people refer to k as a thousand as a result in non computer terminology as a result. Likewise M though can be either 2^20 which is 1048576 or 1000000. Depends on usage.

Regardless I wasn't arguing with the poster I just thought they might have misheard it and I was making sure they were aware it was $700k.

Moving on.

Not everyone operates in those circles. And it wasn't an argument. I didn't even SAY anything I simply typed it in a format I understood and maybe others did.

I certainly didn't feel the need to resort to insults. But to each his own. If you feel better now great.

Please take your K and M circle jerk to another thread or I'll send Lalo after y'all.

By the way, I'm selling a 2006 Prius with about 120m miles on it. Asking 5m. Anybody interested?

Why are you being such a dick about it though.

Ok, this is probably a dumb question, but is there a reason Gus had to stay in the restaurant to take that phone call? I get that he kept the manager there so he could stay and not arouse suspicion, but I don't understand the need to take the phone call from there.

5 million dollars for an '06 Prius? That's crazy, I wouldn't pay more than 5K for that.

Seems he does a lot of his business in that office.

I guess that could be it. But he would be so far out of the DEA's suspicions that it didn't even cross my mind he'd need one.

Yeah, I think he was there because it's his sanctuary of sorts, so he's just sitting there in the dark fuming about what he's having to allow to happen. And was taking it out on the GM.

I was actually expecting him to start throwing **** around and the end, which is so out of character for him.

The more important question here is why the hell does the finance world use M for $1000 and MM for $1,000,000? Do they not understand maths?

I think he just likes Jimmy and realizes he's a good lawyer. He wanted to hire him back in the day but Chuck said no. He's all namaste and Mr. Happy now. Could partially be to honor Chuck's memory too since McGill is start part of the firm name.
