Many people that have studied the 9/11 events are probably quite familiar with WTC7 owner Larry Silverstein, his purchase of WTC tower 1 and 2 just months prior to the attacks, as well as his addition of terrorism insurance on both towers just weeks prior to their destruction, all of which allowed him to turn a bad investment into over 4 billion dollars in profit by the time everything was said and done.
Something that people might not be as aware of however, is the fact that Mr. Silverstein had a meeting scheduled on the morning of 9/11, that was to be held on the 88th floor of the North Tower (WTC1), just below the impact point of where the first plane is said to of struck the tower that morning. The meeting which was scheduled to start at 8am, was to involve Mr. Silverstein and a small group of his employees, which were going to be discussing, of all things, "what to do in the event of a terrorist attack".
Yes, you heard that right, Mr. Silverstein, then owner of the towers, had a meeting that he specifically setup, which was scheduled for the same day, at the same time, in the same location, and dealing with the same general theme as the attack that would then take place that morning... What are the odds!
Thankfully for Mr. Silverstein however, he was not inside the building at the time, as the meeting was abruptly cancelled just hours prior on Monday night, due to 1 participant being unable to make it to the meeting, allowing Mr. Silverstein to survive the day unscathed. Well interestingly enough, from Mr. Silversteins mouth himself; he was that 1 participant that was unable to attend, causing his own "terrorist" themed meeting that morning to be cancelled. Based on his own account of that morning, he was unable to attend the meeting due to his wife scheduling a dermatologist appointment that morning, and forcing him to go to it.
And if that weren't enough, both his son Roger, and daughter Lisa, who were both working for him in temporary offices on the 88th floor of the North Tower at the time, were also not present in the towers that morning, as both were coincidentally running late that day, completely independent of each other, which also allowed them to also remain unscathed that day as well. I guess they don't call him Lucky Larry for nothing?
Why does there always seem to be so many coincidences when it comes to the events of that took place that day? Anyways, for more information check out the links in the description box, and as always, share your thoughts in the comments below!

I am somewhat new to the crypto world and Steemit in general but recently decided to try to jump in with both feet and see what happens. So far I am loving the people and concepts that Steemit and the crypto world are creating for the future, and I feel honored to be part of its infancy. Anyways I guess that's about it, and remember let nothing hold you back... FULL STEEM AHEAD!
