Three contractors are bidding to build a hotel in Niagara Falls, one of them Hamister. All three meet with Governor Cuomo and Mayor Dyster. The first contractor makes his proposal. “Well,” he says, “I figure the land will cost about $1 million, $15 million to build the hotel and $900,000 profit for myself.

The second contractor tells Cuomo and Dyster, “I’ll pay $1.5 million for the empty lot, build the hotel for $14 million and keep a $800,000 profit.

Then it’s Hamister’s turn. He tells Cuomo and Dyster that he’ll purchase the lot for $100,000, accept $4.85 million in subsidies, borrow $24 million from Goldman Sachs, build the hotel for $18 million and mortgage it for $24 million, keep a $10 million profit and kick back $10,000 as a campaign donation to Gov. Cuomo.

Gov. Cuomo asks Hamister, “What about my buddy here, Paul Dyster. How are you going to take care of him?”

Hamister leans forward and whispers in the governor’s ear, “We’ll make him the bell-hop”.
