#8 One of the defamation suits demanded a payoff of $15 million. But it was dismissed, and for most of the suits young Ahmed and Pops were required to pay the expenses of those they sued. Then there was the problem that Pops couldn’t find work in Qatar, and the family was living on government handouts...
