TPG is a brand built around Brian K. RV is unlikely to touch that. This article (which didn't really provide breaking news except for the harrassment incident) will likely make RV rethink the agressive expansion plan they had for 2020 or at least develop a strategy away from personalising it onto Brian.

That the IL trip cost so much is bizarre. The Israel tourism promotion is pretty generous and pays for a lot. Maybe that is the reason why TPG was so generous: RV may have billed the entire trip to them and received some brand promotion fees on top.
