So I just got back from the courthouse and I brought with me Andrew Tong’s psychiatric evaluation, which goes into a little more detail than the filing posted earlier. For instance, what was the object inserted in Tong’s ass by Jiang? Whiteboard marker. What else was Jiang doing to him at the time? Choking him. Why was PJ doing all this? Andrew had come to him and said he was no longer able to get an erection, on account of the birth control pills (his wife’s) that he was taking. So Jiang wanted to demonstrate to Andrew that he could, in fact, get wood (which he did during that particular instance). Before Jiang peed in Tong’s mouth, did he slap Tong around a little bit? Yes. How did the first blow job for trade approval go? Not too well. Tong ended up getting physically ill halfway through. Ping let him stop, however, “Mr. Jiang did not allow the trade as the requested fellatio was not completed” (this is not ‘Nam, there are rules). A few weeks later, Tong “agreed to perform fellatio to Mr. Jiang’s satisfaction. Mr. Jiang then allowed Mr. Tong’s trade to go through.”
On another note: in all seriousness, reading through all this, I actually feel bad for SAC and Steve. This does not come off as workplace sexual harassment but rather a workplace affair between two aberrant fetishists, playing out their S&M/water-sports fantasies, which, unfortunately for SAC, took place at the office. As someone pointed out early, nobody pisses in your mouth without your complicity.

SoFi Answers the Call to Refinance Student Loans and Provides Unique Community Benefits
This is a guest post written by SoFi’s CEO, Mike Cagney.
CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL ARTICLE
Recently, there’s been a lot of talk amongst leaders in Washington about how to improve the painful process of repaying student loans. At SoFi, we feel your pain and work hard to offer more flexible, more affordable options for our borrowers. One idea that’s getting a lot of attention is increasing the options for refinancing debt after graduation. The only lender currently focused on refinancing private and federal student loans is SoFi.
We recognized early on that borrowers who have made timely payments on their loans, graduated from school, and have a job should be able to refinance their student loans at a lower interest rate. This may be why, after resuming lending by invitation, the media became increasingly interested in what we are doing.
In a recent article posted on MainStreet.com SoFi General Counsel Rob Lavet had this to say about SoFi’s ReFi products:
“We can offer a better deal than the federal government in terms of rates […].We offer borrowers who meet our underwriting criteria a package that pays off their federal and existing private student loans at a rate as low as 5.49%. Some lenders will do a consolidation on private loans, but we’re the first lender to offer to refinance a federal loan at a lower rate.”
Journalists from the USA TODAY, The Chronicle for Higher Education, the American Banker among others, also found themselves reporting on how SoFi is “using social communities and offering refinancing of student loans.“ It is this social community aspect that makes refinancing with SoFi so valuable. By connecting borrowers with a community literally invested in their success, the benefits of a SoFi loan go beyond saving money.
How many student lenders do you know that will help unemployed borrowers find a new job? SoFi does just that – engaging with borrowers who are actively looking for new employment opportunities and leveraging the networks of all members eager to help these individuals achieve new heights in their career.
Our Entrepreneur Program is another example of SoFi’s community in action connecting like-minded borrowers and investors in support of new business creation. We combine mentoring sessions for participants with exclusive access to the venture capital community.
SoFi wants to help borrowers realize their goals beyond paying off student debt. Whether seeking employment opportunities, career advice, partners for entrepreneurial ventures, access to industry luminaries, or simply a like-minded network, our members benefit from a supportive community of people vested in one another’s success.

You know what they say: You can’t choose your family, but you can choose your financial planner. Or something like that. One of the great things of being in charge of your money is choosing who (if anyone) will help you manage it. The choice isn’t always an easy one. How will you know that your planner is reputable and trustworthy?
These five red flags may be good indications of whether the financial planner sitting across from you is someone you should trust with your money. LearnVest Planning also provides an innovative 7-step program for your money where you work one-on-one with a financial planner. To see if this program is right for you, start with a free financial consultation.
1. She Isn’t Certified
“There are a lot of good planners out there who aren’t Certified Financial Panners™,” says Samantha Vient, CFP®, of LearnVest Planning Services. “However, CFPs® are required to adhere to the CFP® Board’s standards of professional conduct.We believe it’s always a good idea to work with someone who has the CFP® designation, which is issued after completing a CFP® Board-approved personal financial planning curriculum, passing a rigorous exam issued by the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, meeting experience requirements and passing an ethics and background check.
2. He Offers to Manage Your Money for “Free”
Financial planners are usually paid in one of two ways: Either through fee-only, which can be a set fee, hourly, retainer or a percentage of the assets they manage for you, or through commission, which means the planner is paid each time he buys or sells an investment.Fee-only payment structures can be more desirable to some clients, as there’s no financial incentive based on assets under management for a planner to buy or sell, whereas working on commission encourages planners to make trades, rather than solely look out for your best interest—called a “fiduciary” duty. (You want to be sure that the planner you choose is a fiduciary.)
LearnVest Planning Services provides the services of fee-only Certified Financial Planners™. Get started for free with a 15-minute financial consultation.
3. She Says She Outperforms the Market
“If a financial planner tells you that she can outperform the market, that’s a major red flag,” Vient explains. “In fact, due to government regulations, it’s illegal to advertise statements that promise a specific return.”Outperforming the market—that is, getting better investment returns than the market average—is extremely difficult to do consistently, and requires taking a lot of risks with your investments. It’s rare to find a financial planner who can consistently outperform the market—and results are never guaranteed. Either way, in the pursuit of these high returns, she’ll be exposing your investments to much higher risk than you may be comfortable with.
Instead, look for a CFP® who, when looking at your portfolio, can advise on proper asset allocation based on your risk tolerance and time horizon, as well as through economic ups and downs.
4. She Doesn’t Ask About Your Financial Goals
“Your planner isn’t just there to crunch the numbers,” Vient advises. “She’s helping you make a plan for your money and your life. You should be looking for someone who has similar values to you.”Ideally, you’ll likely want to work with someone who is in a similar life stage. Are you a parent? A planner with children may be better able to understand your need to save for college. Does your CFP® have a specialty? Some planners have an area of expertise, like insurance, estate planning, divorce or retirement—a fact you might want to consider if that’s a particular need of yours.
When meeting a potential planner, remember that you’re allowed to ask questions about their experience and priorities: “Do you think it’s more important to save for retirement or pay off debt? How do you feel about supporting kids through college? How do you mitigate investment risk as your clients get older?”
The choices you make with your money are intensely personal. The person who helps you make these choices should be able to understand and accept your financial priorities, and help you use your money to meet them.
5. His Management Style Makes You Uncomfortable
Financial planners can manage your money for you or manage your money with you. As different people have different needs when it comes to money management, there is no right way to work with a planner—it’s up to you to decide how hands-on you want him to be.
When you sign on with a financial planner, there will be a written agreement of how the two of you will manage your money. Read this carefully, and ask questions if you’re unsure about anything. Are you signing your accounts over to this planner? Will he check in with you before making a trade, or when rebalancing your accounts? If you’re uncomfortable with anything in the agreement, bring it up immediately.Learn more about LearnVest Planning and our financial planners by visiting learnvest.com.

A psyc eval of Ping would have been MUCH more awesome.
These office hijinks always seem to come to a bad ending when they cross the line into sodomy
@21 ingrate.
Sad, sad, very sad. Poor man.
Da otha day, I wuz gettin’ pumped in da gym. Da usual crowd of admirers was standin’ around me, watching enviously as I punished by massive pecs on da bench press.
Anyway, when I was on my third set, pushing 350 lbs, I was really grunting. I had my eyes closed and my mouth open, when all of a sudden, ARS pissed into it.
It was ok, but I was not complicit in dat act.

Did he use a black marker because it is longer and thicker than a yellow marker?

Markers are for pussies. Real men use parking cones.

It’s called an “Alternative Investment” for a reason!

I just hope they practiced safe sex and left the cap on.

I think Jiang actually did this guy a favor by revealing to him the closet he’s been living in his whole life.
This has given me some good ideas for my next Vegas trip.
@34 too soon.
And I tried to kill myself for what I did?

This is just the sort of fellatious antics I fought to clean up and hope to continue as Senator from NY.
E. Spitzer
I autofellate every time I want to make a trade. Every. Single. Time. And if I can’t cum, I punish myself and I don’t hit the bid.

@39/Day Trader:
Cawl me. Cawl me right away! I’d like to make you an official friend-a-mine.

@HighlyConfident
This is a (set of) move(s) right out of the Max Hardcore Official Playbook, assuming of course he made sure to stretch/gape the hole whilst p*ssing into it and such, but now I’m just nitpicking.
OK, no riddle me this….why the hell didn’t Cohen’s asshole lawyers not pay this freak to go away (and then kill Ping and dump him in the Sound). No! Arrogant asses decide having this all over the internet is something better than paying a few million. Idiots! Cohen’s probably interviewing PR firms (for millions!) to try and put the shit back in the horse…..
42, fishing with bait like that, you won’t catch anything.
For @Naked Short and all you other perverts out there,

@44 – If she gets a tramp stamp that says “Enter Here”, I am rubbing one out on the spot. Who am I kidding. I am rubbing one out over this.

Here’s my pop psychology analysis: the guy’s been a homo ever since his parents pulled him from school for being bullied– but this is a non sequitur. He gets a job at SAC, but he fails to perform and even makes some loser trades that he needs to cover up. Ergo this whole psychotic obfuscation. This story has Peter Young, Morgan Grenfell, written all over it. If you want to avoid conviction of loser trades, be a lady.
@46 = psychoanalyst. help me examine my motives.
Golden Rain!
Some stay dry and others feel the pain!
**I move away from the mic to breathe in
Golden Rain!
SAC can probably settle this for $20mm.
@49-try and keep up. litigation already ended and tong didn’t get a dime.
If you are Cohen, how do you not decide to do a house cleaning of personnel, furniture and location?
How do you even get any work done knowing that Tong and Jiang have touched things.
I’d have to sell the whole building, or move the company to places where people don’t like markers in their derriere. Maybe Minnesota. Or hire all women.
@50, wow, nice job by SAC’s lawyers
@52 No doubt, but the case itself has obvious problems.
(a) AT didn’t complain –to anyone except Ping– until after he was fired.
(2) Most of the stuff he complained about (insults, taunts) may have been part of the normal atmosphere at SAC. Prove that it wasn’t.
(d) The “quid pro quo” allegations are strictly AT’s word against PJ’s. AT’s own account makes it seem like PJ let up when AT asked him to.
“Damn, these dry erase markers smell like ass…”
-SAC Employee
@50 Nussbaum doesn’t fuck around
@31 ftw lol
Two years later, even with the court records unsealed, I just feel like, gosh, I don’t quite understand what happened.
Could someone maybe re-enact the whole thing as a photo essay with action figures, please?
kthnx
HEY! WHY’S THERE A PIECE OF CORN STUCK ON THE END OF THIS MARKER!?!? HUH? HUH? ANYBODY? I WANT ANSWERS!!!

Dr. Ping Jiang, One of the world’s foremost macro traders on Opalesque TV, Ping recounts surviving the “Lehman trap” after launching the Ping Exceptional Value Fund in 2008, and how he managed to return 193% (unleveraged) in 2009.
