The Osbornes aren't broke (at least not after this sale) but it's pretty clear that they're moving on from that old resplendent lifestyle they knew 25 years or so ago. I wish them the best. Mr. Osborne was always a good man, a rich eccentric in town who liked to spend money on making the people around him happy. Hard to find anyone like that in Little Rock these days.

If anyone on here thinks that the Osbournes are broke, they are crazy, these people are not broke they are doing this so they will not have to release any of the money that they have and agreed to do this to pay off some creditors.

Rodie, estate taxes are bs...it's pretty screwed up that we allow our gov't to tax things that have already been taxed over and over again....FYI, the Jennings family had to file bankruptcy, they're broke.
