"Very few things really got to me personally as far as irritating me," Richardson said. "But one thing that bothered me immensely was when people would imply that the only reason this was being done was for money. The Jacksons have a lot of money. They're rich people; there's no getting around it. They didn't need the money; they didn't want the money. This wasn't done for the money in any way, shape, or form. I made an awfully concerted effort to get that point across, and I hoped I succeeded."
That always pissed me off, too. They did it because they loved the horse. He was their pet.
