Corzine

Post by woodchip »

So after MF Global went bankrupt over the shady practices of one Mr Corzine, and as the the old song went "I can really shake 'em down " (Contours,"Do you Love me") he thinks he can start another Hedge Fund. I say he should be banned from anything involving financial and OPM (other peoples money).

I can't see where the untrustworthy sonofabitch would draw anything other than dumb money into the fund anyway.....

"The fund would start with cash from Mr. Corzine’s personal wealth and a handful of outside investors. Mr. Corzine said he had been speaking with about a half-dozen potential investors, and projected around $150 million in assets under management, one of the people said."

what a chump fund. Corzine and 6 rubes with a paltry sum to start with. Almost like those old football betting cards: for amusement only. Not a serious player.

Man, I haven't heard that name in ages. Probably for good reason too.
