WOW that is a big investment gone down the tubes, although I suppose Mr Big has a very good excuse as to why it wasn't him - That is of course if they have a clue of who he is ........LOL

Productions cost loss:

47 million pills x 50 cent = 23.5 million dollars. 

 

Lost street sale revenue:

47 million x 20 dollars = 940 million + 23.5 million = total loss of 963.5 million.dollars.
