Next, a man is trying to sue Disney after his wife had a fatal allergic reaction at Disney World, but the company says he can’t because of his Disney+ account. Also, Neal shares his favorite numbers this week on the Mars $36B mega deal, online sports betting, and mini farm animals. Lastly, Millennials are actually wealthier than ever thanks to skyrocketing home values.
