Bess- phenominal cap to a very solid day. Go make someone buy you a gimlet immediately.
Yep. True that.
seconded. whole week was pretty awesome.
Love how they took pains to include the “strong vaginal odor” in the story, ergo the police report. I’m sure her ex-husband is a looker, too. Line ‘em up, barkeep.
I would also like to add that custody banking is not the NKI.
I went all the way to Brown Brothers Harriman to get a good charcoal grey business suit and they acted like I was an idiot or something!

Hey Bess,
A solid week with one exception – Chucky G is fabricating more information than normal as a way to promote yet another PATHETIC Book. I mean, how much more pathetic can one be than to have CNBC promote a book callled the SELLOUT and it can’t even come close to a SELL OUT. Once they fired his ass, his book went down like a Lewinsky on a Presidential Pecker. What’s it now – about 100,000 on Amazon. And now “Bought and Paid For” is soon to be renamed “UnBought, Unpaid For and Soon to be returned to the Publisher”.
Which brings me to his latest effort as self promotion in the NY Post (Lord knows nobody watched FBN so he’s got to go somewhere to promote his book). Did you notice the absence of quotes and his statement that “no one goes on the record anymore”. Bullshit. All the other reports routinely site their sources, provide references and quotes. The simple fact of the matter is that the GasBag has no real sources. He makes all this shit up. And, that is why he is wrong 86% of the time according to well documented statistics.
As someone recently posted: Gossiparino’s best writing was done with a can of spray paint on a wall in the Bronx. Amen to that brother.
Other than that Bess-a great week.
Someone give that woman Soros’s number.
Oh dear.

BBH . . . closing their institutional equity group years ago was the dumbest move they ever did since their founding in 1818
—- mismanaged , mishandled
He looks so regal in those pics.
BBH really went to downhill…no i-banking, no asset mgmt, at this point I’m not sure what happens other than paper shuffling at that place
Actually, they do have a mezzanine fund. Just sayin’.
and by mezzanine they mean the area between the bed frame and a mattress
Now this is a client who knows what he’s talking about. Brokers should be guided by this understanding:

Citi Debt Funds Probed by SEC .
“Mr. Johnston told client Robert Goldstein, president of Las Vegas Sands’ Venetian casino, of an offer from Citigroup to buy back his personal investment at what in his case would amount to a 72% loss. In an email to a Citigroup executive, Mr. Johnston described his client’s reaction: “1. Go f— yourself. 2. We’ll see you in court. 3. You’ll look good in stripes.” Mr. Goldstein confirmed investing in the fund but disputed the broker’s account of his reaction. He eventually accepted an offer from the bank to limit his losses, people familiar with the events said.”
Anyone else gets an avert by iforex.com on this page? Looks bucketshoppy to me. Not good for dealbreaker’s name imo.
