Longtime readers of this site know that we are huge fans of Destroyer of all worlds/marine life/investor capital Brian Hunter. So it was very painful to find out that not only do the feelings not go both ways, but he actively tries to prevent his wife from reading our work on him– work that we put more blood, sweat and tears into than Fish Boy obviously ever did on small things like risk management.
And then there’s the press. It has been relentless, at times malicious, and sometimes flat wrong, according to Hunter. He points to a piece in Britain’s Sunday Times saying that he had to hire bodyguards to protect him against attacks by former employees. “How could they write that when it isn’t true?” he asks in disbelief. A Dealbreaker.com story quoted Kim saying, “We are confident that Brian Hunter will be vindicated.” Then the site added its own editorial comment: “Or he will hang himself in his cell.” No wonder Hunter’s wife gets upset. “I have to keep her off Google,” says Hunter.
The Man Who Lost $6 billion [Fortune]
what’s great is when you crack on somebody in a blog and you have pretty good search engine opt. The poor bastard pulls himself up on Google and there’s your post calling him an a-hole right up at the top. Poor bastards!
maybe its just me, but i always like to think that db is a little secret that only select ppl know about. references like this one continue to prove me wrong.
happy wednesday.
bess, you have to get off at least a little bit at this attention.
Hi Mrs. Hunter!!! I know you’re reading this. Have any pics?
The absurdity of it all. Why would you allow yourself to google your husband knowing very well that what you read will be countless literary effigies?! Mrs. Hunter, you are a media masochist and you need help.
Hunter’s only next move is into national politics, where losing $6b is a weekly routine. Are politicians who short the dollar insider trading? Go for it BH!
Hunter and his whore wife should both be killed. A photo of their mangled corpses would be a good deterrent to Hunter wannabees
How much did Hunter steal? He lost $6 Billion of OPM, but how much did he siphon out? Anybody know?
he made over 100 mill the year before
” he made over 100 mill the year before……”
I am amazed people think like that. That’s like saying someone was a great pilot before he intentionally flew into a mountain.
@ 1:33 – the point being Hunter took home $100mln for himself in 2005, and didn’t have to pay anything back for blowing up the next year. He’s rich, and we’re the chumps
Too long, didn’t read.
@1:50,
All the more reason to kill Hunter and his whore wife. We shouldn’t have to be “the chumps” for a criminal asshole and his complicit whore wife.
@2:24 – Vigilante justice. I like it. It’s the only way that any real pain will come to Hunter.
GUEST!!! – Come clean yourself…Loser ;)
You suck at LIFE!!! Please don’t post any comments about wanting to kill them. You are a sick bastard. I hope you and your sad self start worrying about how crazy you are. He’s got a family. I get sad when I know that there are people like you that are allowed to walk this earth. It’s just money! And it’s obvious money doesn’t buy happiness.
