He owns the Hilton in Starkville, I believe

and he also part-owned State Theatre recently, but they did a terrible job and are trying to or already did sell it.

Wish someone could answer this

Does anyone know how Indian people buy so many businesses? It's like when a you ger Indian guy is ready, he just buys a hotel or 3 gas stations or whatever. Do they have private community funding or something?

Short answer is yes... money from friends and family

Long answer is all wrapped up in Hindi culture, castes, and other things I'm not that versed in. But yes, they typically believe in helping each other get started. Then when you are successful, you return the favor.
