    NR is totally loving this. He's such a party boy. And then you have NNT, who'd rather be looking for black swans. Gotta love it.

    She said us big nosed studs were $250 for the hour and she would let the old man sit an watch for free…but if he came it was an extra $100. I also invited her to my daughters bat mitzvah in case the old guy creeps you out and you are not up for it now. It's ok, Spitzer says she is not vice and "no handbridge required!"

    @8, #5 here, I think he has a few "go-to" turtlenecks for special events, and then a drawer full of everyday wear. This is clearly a special event. Probably cashmere. Sometimes you gotta just roll out the red carpet.

  115. Posted by Jeff Sneider | January 26, 2010 at 1:58 PM

    First of all, my name is Jeff Sneider, and as a former writer/editor at Variety and AICN, I know a thing or two about Internet trolls. You're all too afraid to post your real names because you lack class and you have nothing to say of any substance. I happen to know the woman in this picture. She is a dear friend of mine. She is not the bubble-headed, eye candy/arm accessory you Wall St. assholes are making her out to be. She happens to be a BRILLIANT accountant/financial analyst, as evidenced by the fact that Nouriel Roubini keeps her in his company. There is nothing romantic about their relationship. He is a trusted friend and mentor of hers. Like #73, I too have had the honor and privilege of viewing this beautiful creature in her natural glory, and she is a sight to behold. To quote a famous Seinfeld episode, yes they are real, and they are FANTASTIC. In fact, they're absolutely perfect, and most of you would probably weep if their light were to take pity and shine on you. Plus, she looks nothing like Snooki, who on her best day wouldn't look a quarter as good as this woman on her worst.
    It's one thing to take to the Internet and write filth about models and movie stars, who open themselves up to public criticism simply by being who they are and doing what they do. But the girl in this photo is a person with real feelings, who is probably mortified reading this filth. She is a beautiful, kind, caring cool, funny, smart and above all SEXY woman and you should all be ashamed of yourselves.
    Meanwhile, Bess Levin, this post is in poor form. You had to know exactly the sort of comments you'd be opening this innocent girl up to. Here's a smart, successful young woman who has gotten to where she is all on her own, and you allow your obnoxious readers to make snap judgments based on what, her cleavage and the fact that she's at a party with wealthy older gentlemen? Poor taste… and as a woman, you should understand this better than anybody. I thought you/this blog were above this. I guess I was wrong. You owe my friend an apology and you can get in touch with me if you'd like to track her down.

    Give me a break. If she doesn't want people to make dirty comments about her, then tell her not to wear a slut outfit that barely covers her cooter and then pose for pictures with not 1, not 2 but 3 very famous people. The ring on the middle finger screams ho as well.

  119. Posted by Sunshine | January 26, 2010 at 2:25 PM

    (I need to stop this but hell, people's stupidity is astounding and soooo entertaining)
    @122: let me get this straight, if you take a picture with 3 famous people at once, you are a "ho" and G-d forbid you happen to wear jewelry that day, 'cause that's just confirms all the terrible suspicions about a person, right? That makes so much sense, you must be a genius! Wow, what a revelation.
    So if I have a picture with the president, first lady and vice-president all in one shot with me and (gasp!) I wore a ring and a necklace that day… that would make me a super "ho", right?… even though I work with them on a regular basis?
    You are really "bright" 122 ;-)

  120. Posted by subprime | January 26, 2010 at 2:42 PM

    @121…You are 100% correct.
    I have had the privilege of going out with and getting to know this amazing woman, and it's unfortunate that people would hide behind aliases and "guest" monikers when hurling insults. What's even worse is when people start making snide comments about someone's appearance.
    The person who made comments about Germans killing Jews should be tied up behind a car and dragged down the FDR.
    If you met this woman in person and spent five minutes with her, you would know that she is amazing and far more than just what you garner from one picture on the Internet. Like Jeff says, she is fantastic in her career and has the respect of her peers.
    Bess, do us a favor, and think twice about putting up photos of innocent bystanders that don't get slammed in the press. I mean that in all sincerity and otherwise love Dealbreaker. It's one thing to slam Roubini and Soros or whoever else is regularly in the news, but an innocent girl like this who took a photo at one of his parties? Come on…that's not right.
    I know this woman personally very well, and she is a dear friend. I won't comment about her physical features, because that has no place her, but I will say that I can agree with Jeff's assessment. I think that's all that needs to be said.
    For anyone else who would want to keep throwing insults and "witty comments" about you could do better than her or how she's not all that…consider that she never wanted the publicity and that this photo was ripped off of someone else's site. If it were you, how would you want yourself to be treated?

  121. Posted by guest | January 26, 2010 at 1:52 PM

    So…I take it no one knows who the bitch is??
    And by “bitch”, I mean the one with the vagina.
    And by “vagina”, I mean the one in the picture technically classified as a female.
    And by “female”, I mean the one wearing the skirt.

    Jeffy/Bessy – take your PC chit-chat off line. Guilt trips don't go over well on this site.

    @129 last I checked Bess in charge here, not you.

    @134-138 did you think that was hysterical?

    @124, if she's all she's cracked up to be, why did she allow herself to be photographed with that crew? Maybe she is an innocent, successful professional but that picture screams otherwise. And it's not like she didn't know the photo was being taken.
    Bess has very good editoral judgement and many who work in finance, economics, and other sectors, regard her as one of the best bloggers on the internet. She also knows her market: boobs "sell". Personally, I wish we'd see more pecs, biceps, and six-packs. But since most of this site's readers crave boob pix, then tit it is.
    OK, it's time for the insecure, closeted homophobes to flame away.

    @121 The way your post reads, it is OK for Bess to make a caption contest using a picture of these three men plus a bimbo, but not these men plus your friend.
    This image is ideal for a caption contest because the subjects are three high profile men, known to be smart and successful with an unknown woman with certain obvious (and thus known) assets. The fact that other assets of hers are unknown is not relevant to the contest but as neither of the three men are in the habit of attending functions together at which bimbos are also guests, it can be assumed (and would be by most) that she is not a bimbo.
    Your statement that everyone (you did say "all" in your previous sentence) reading and posting here thinks she is a bubble-headed, eye candy/arm accessory is a projection. Furthermore, a review of the previous posts shows only a relative low percentage have made such comments or worse.
    There are always assholes in any part of society. That there are assholes here is no reason not to post a good picture for a caption contest. Just because one of the subjects happens to be a good friend of yours is also not a good reason. As she is smart, she will know this blog is testosterone fueled, ignore the asshole comments and laugh at the others.

    that's a home run

    @143 agreed. and most of the obnoxious comments were directed at NR, which 121 would've seen if he hadn't pulled the trigger with such haste. also, it seems like the girl did exactly what you described "know this blog is testosterone fueled, ignore the asshole comments and laugh at the others" and didn't need 121 to ride in here to her rescue.

    slightly (tho not really) O/T but I love that DB is one of the few sites Roubini follows on Twitter.
