Dude – where’s your hand?
Wow, it is possible to say “squeeze it harder and stroke faster” while smiling for a camera. Who knew?
Roubini’s expression says: ‘I’m not wearing any pants’
LeBeouf’s expression says: ‘Roubini’s not wearing any pants’
My expression says: ‘I think I just threw up in my mouth, a little bit’

I plan on leaving the good professor’s balls bankrupt, of sperm, if you know what I’m saying.

“Why does Chester the Molester here keep asking me if I broke into Megan Fox’s trailer and sniffed her undies?”
Just me or are Roubini’s fingers freakishly long?

#6 Excellent turn of phrase.

The new killing it
-NR
Two guys that know absolutely nothing about finance.
Nouriel’s fixed grimace says “who the hell is this fuck?” Shia’s sheepish smile says “I just came in my pants.”
I’d love to have been a vulva on the wall during that conversation.
It’s 10:15 and Greg thankfully hasn’t posted yet. But when he does, I already know it is going to suck. At least the kid is consistent.
#18 ftw
That’s eerily reminiscient of photos of suicide bombers in the days before they depart for their missions.

“I fly stuff in fresh every day. I get bread from back home, I get fish from California, and you can always tell a great kitchen like ours ’cause of the milk-fed veal. That’s the secret. See milk-fed veal is pure white. Out here, they got that pink veal. Slide over, honey. Now pink veal, you can pound that shit for two days, and it’ll never ever get tender, you know what I mean? “
Shia: Nubs, here’s my gift to you.
Nubs: Oh joy – your dick in a box.
They’ve made an AIDS vaccine! You can resume pounding your secretary in the ass without protection. The 80′s are back baby.
Nouriel’s favorite stripper/hooker/law student was the one holding the camera
Yep, #48 FTW!
“hey nori, you want to be pitcher or catcher this time?”
“The only thing gayer than picture is eight guys fucking nine guys”
Who knew Dr. Doom was into young boys as well?
One is a skinny bitch who likes to take it in the ass and thinks he is famous. The other one is Shia LeBoeuf.
63- Gaspo was holding the camera. The sweaty italian loves fluid situations.
The smile reveals to even the casual observer which of the two was the alpha.

“Shia, every seen a Grown Man Naked?”
Tell me about that movie “Holes” you were in..

Just a pair of fudge packers!

Poll: CFA Carries More Weight Than MBA
Article published on September 16, 2009
By Gregory Shulas
Industry professionals seeking credentials that elevate their career prospects are better off pursuing the CFA over the MBA. That’s according to a FundFire poll which asked readers to identify the credential that carries the most weight.
Roughly 53%, or 781 voters, said the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation carries more gravitas than the Master of Business Administration (MBA) in the asset management industry. That made it the top choice in the survey, which focused exclusively on those two credentials.
In contrast, 22%, or 329 voters, said the MBA is the most meaningful designation in the sector, putting that in second place by a distant margin.
A mere 8%, or 111 voters, meanwhile, said the credentials hold an equal amount of weight in the industry, making that the survey’s least popular option. Further, 17%, or 251 voters, said neither designation is make-or-break for a skilled and determined professional.
The poll’s findings dovetail with a June 23 FundFire survey in which roughly 55%, or 684 voters, said the CFA designation significantly influences a professional’s ability to get ahead. Only 8% of voters in that poll said it is not necessary to pursue the CFA.
FundFire has reported that the number of sales, marketing and client relations professionals seeking their CFA designation has more than doubled in the past several years.
For example, 389 exam takers registered as marketing managers took the test in June, compared to 185 in June 2007. Additionally, roughly 5,250 relationship manager exam takers took the test this year, in contrast to 2,496 in 2007. (Click here for FundFire article, “Sales Pros Taking CFA for Edge.”)
Being a CFA candidate is no walk in the park, however. It can take months, if not years in some cases, to prepare. And passing is hardly a given, as only 45% of exam takers made the grade this June.
A candidate must pass three tests sequentially. The Level I exam is offered twice per year, in December and June, while the Level II and Level III tests are offered only once a year.
As of 3 p.m. Tuesday, 1,472 FundFire subscribers had participated in the poll.
Participants were self-selected and were only able to vote once. FundFire’s primary audience consists of asset managers, institutional investors, consultants, financial advisors and service providers.
What say Shia? Buckin bronco or flying camel tonight?
Nice pic considering how bad the light is in those lady-boy bars.
