Listen, guy, I will blow your fucking brains/hair out.
Here’s a little hope for anyone needing it on a particularly slow Monday while you possibly fantasize about a life that doesn’t so closely resemble hell: you could be a family abandoning, child-support dodging, drug-dealing resident of an insane asylum named Joe Meyers who spends his days asking his roommate, “WHO YOU CALLIN’ PSYCHO?” and/or unappreciated cog in the wheel and one day get the people of New York to think you’re a Prince/CEO of an unnamed bank. How? I’m glad you asked. It’s all about acting as-if. Prince Josef ne Joe, whose run ended earlier this summer when the FBI arrested him and threw him in a Michigan jail cell, went about it like this:
* Clothes: “He would walk around SoHo in banker-style suits. It was always very preppy with expensive, intellectual-looking spectacles,” said a source close to the family. “He dressed up all of the time, even the hottest days. His shirts were all very special. Everything he had was custom-made,” said David Sun, who owns Soho Dry Cleaning, where the family took their washing.
* Attitude: Claimed to own a bank and “once boasted that losing $100,000 a day meant nothing to him,” like a pro would.
* Accoutrement: “The alleged con man’s new digs behind bars are a far cry from his extravagantly appointed loft on Broome Street where Meyers and his second wife, half-French, half-Vietnamese beauty Michel Trico…He would walk around SoHo in banker-style suits. It was always very preppy with expensive, intellectual-looking spectacles,” said a source close to the family. “Sometimes he would even wear a cordless hair dryer on his belt like it was a gun,” the source said.
His dildo was awfully nice, too.
Joe Meyers = Zach Kouwe.
I get my expensive, intellectual-looking spectacles from Malaysia.
Bringing a bit of the Sound of Music to Soho with the lederhosen and bowties is a nice touch. The hair dryer pistol though…that’s the sign of a deranged mind.
Ouch.
“He dressed up all of the time, even the hottest days. His shirts were all very sweaty. Everything he had was a shade of yellow,” said David Sun, who owns Soho Dry Cleaning, where the family took their washing.
Fixed.
With thought
Staging a portrait of your wife a la something out of every art history class you slept through is the new killing it?
what? no globe to show her worldliness?
FBI (paying Ponzi guy for 3 years as an informant) > SEC (ignoring ponzi guy for 20 years)
@2 – No, Joe Meyers = Kouwanal_yst
“Here’s a little hope for anyone needing it on a particularly slow Monday while you possibly fantasize about a life that doesn’t so closely resemble hell:”
Amazing intro. Well done.
Like 11 said, too close to home.
I went to university with his daughter at U of M. Apparently she actually thought she was royalty.
He fooled the principal of Claremont Prep, the Broad Street prep school, for years. They fired teachers who thought this guy was a flake. Ask the school about him.
Too bad that the post didn’t give credit to the two P.I.s that helped me and Meyer’s “Michigan wife”. Bob Kowalkowski and Steven Rambam exposed Meyers, got Michigan to issue a felony warrant and then hunted Meyers down with the US Marshals.
Royalty are 10 to the dozen over here in Yerp… although I have yet to see one that bleeches his hair in such a way to look like a faggot gangster.
The Headmaster of Claremont and Joe Meyers were up to no good. Now both are gone and Wall Street is a better place. As a parent, I was fooled by the charisma of both.
Sorry, but you got it completely wrong.
Time after time the FBI protected Meyers, and kept him from going to jail, despite arrests for kilos of cocaine, automatic weapons, extortion attempts, strong-arm activities, stalking, stolen credit cards, stolen and forged checks, bogus financial documents and numerous frauds. When Meyers and his wife, Michele Trico, were arrested last year for child endangerment the FBI made sure that Meyers was booked under an alias and that Michigan’s warrant for Meyers’ arrest was ignored.
It was the US Marshals that arrested Meyers, with the assistance of NY private eye Steven Rambam and Michigan private eye Robert Kowalkowski. The FBI had absolutely nothing to do with Meyers arrest. If it was up to the FBI, Meyers would still be out committing crimes.
FYI, “Prince” Meyers pled “no contest” to all charges, with no plea deal. He will be sentenced on August 11th. Hopefully this dirtbag will spend the next 44 months in Michigan prisons. His wife and co-conspirator, Michele Georges Trico AKA Michele Lothringen, remains free. Why isn’t 60 Minutes doing a story on this?
I was a teacher at Claremont Prep and subject to the constant verbal abuse of Josef Myers! The former principal, Irwin Schlacter, just loved this man and totally believed that he was a prince. In fact, the two of them socialized regularly and ate lunch on a weekly basis at Bobby Van’s Steakhouse.
As teachers, Irwin required us to bow down to this man and do everything that he requested. What a joke! Justice prevails!
When the evidence-mug shots etc were presented in 2008 to the owner of the school-Michael Koffler and the Head at the time-Irwin Schlacter-they refused to believe that it was Josef. They believed he was a prince and that he was going to donate lots of money to Claremont prep-which included a new roof deck that was going to be named the Josef Von Habsburg Playground!
