Today's Blind Items - Video Store King

A bunch of different names, but all owned by one person. This former B list television actor turned A list mostly movie actor turned seems to be in a ton of movies A- lister owns them. What does he own? Video stores. All over the west coast. All of them lose money hand over fist but our actor doesn't care. Our actor, who is a multiple Academy Award winner/nominee is also a huge pot grower. Massive. Well, let me clarify that. He owns all the land where the pot is grown by farmers who do the actual selling. He just gets a really big cut of the profits. The thing is though, he gets paid in cash. By the 3rd of the month each month, all of his paying tenants have dropped off hundreds of thousands of dollars. So, what does he do? He funnels all that cash through all those video stores. On paper they must be the most successful video stores in the country. Hundreds of fake customers renting a bunch of non existent movies. When he does get an actual customer they are usually faced with a collection that has not been updated in four or five years. But hey, no late fees at his stores.
