    Seriously, 10 to 1? Who actually can get that many girls to show up to a party? If you have 5 of your boys showing up, how in the world are you going to get 50 chicks? Caviar and champagne? Tiffanys tennis bracelets as door prizes?

    I thought Bess was being a smart-ass with the Clinton crack, but it’s actually in the article (not quoted, but still…).
    Note to NR: the last friend of Bill’s to “go against the grain” ended up in a “plane crash.” Good fucking riddance.

    Dr. Walter Massey, president of Moorehouse College is now Chairman of the Board of BOFA. So, what happens to Ken?

    So Roubini is evoking Clinton? Stay classy Nouriel. You’ve got about 1 minute left in your 15.

    Even if 10-1 won’t make it work for him he still has the wall vaginas.

    Its actually pretty easy….
    I know about a dozen Iranian/Persian Financiers/Bankers like him and they all have that formula…
    I guess you gotta have game when your branded The Axis of Evil..it works, they bang some high end pussy.
    They all use the same gig: Park Ave/Tribeca/Soho Real estate; Custom suits, Rolex/Patek, Ferrari/Bentley, Polo Horses, Monaco/St. Tropez, etc.
    Every firm has one…from Navab at KKR, to Biglari, Citi Vice Chair. to some at GS, ML & Bear.
    They are hard core sharks, they bring in business and close the chicks.

    10 to 1 my ass. I had a party at my place where the ratio surpassed 2 to 1, might have briefly hit 3 to 1, and after a while girls started to move on because there weren’t enough dudes.

    Roubini is a loser. Hes gonna be Cramer in two years, he should enjoy himself now. Im sure the ladies go wild when he talks abt the Black Swans. Probably like other quant guys on the street, who behave like Russell Crowe from a beautiful mind. See numbers all over the place but cant talk to people.

    @9, sounds like you are one of these smelly losers trying to talk yourself up. Nice try.
