Yes, everyone’s had their knickers in a twist since Monday over Goldman’s $450 million investment in Facebook but Charlie Gasparino says back that truck up– Lloyd Blankfein may have made the rookie mistake of listing himself in a relationship too soon, according to one of two sources.
in related news my lats were under enormous pressure at equinox this morning

I heard Lloyd sent Zuckerberg cock pics a little too soon and it looked like a baby’s arm holding an apple.
Jesus!!! I didn’t invent the internet to have put up with all this crazy shit!!
I hear he heard that from a guy at Equinox who says he knows some guy who knew Zukerman in college.
SEC pressure? Riiiight.
If it really doesn’t happen it’s because Lloyd and the rest of the bloodsuckers gauged their clients interest all week . . . interest fell short of expectations, so they back out. Like most of the deals at Goldman win/win . . . for Goldman employees.
What does Mr. Zuckerman, the owner of Wilbur from the classic storybook “Charlotte’s Web,” have anything to do with this?

Thank you…thank you…It’s a pleasure to be commenting here today. You know, the word “if” is a mighty big word. For example “if” my aunt had balls she’d be my uncle! (Pause for laughter) “IF” a frog had wings it would eat pigeon pussy!! But I digress…
You know, we are all what we are. For example, I feel more like I do now than I did a while ago. Think about it. In the box or out…HEY!!”….Catbox. You are what you read on the wall of life. No, not like, “Why look here when the joke is in your hand?” No. Not that kind of wall, but the walls we are when we want to be of that which all of us refer to from time to time in substantial investments. So, there was a proverb on the wall of a certain company and I asked the owner (I was doing due diligence) so I asked the owner, “hey…the motto out in the reception area, do you follow it?” And he says, “No soliciting?” And I said “No…the sign that you see when you come in the building…” And he said, “Pull?” And I said, “No, not the sign on the door, that sign on the wall behind that cute receptionist….” And I waited for his answer and he didn’t even know his own statement!!! So I didn’t invest with what we would alternatively see when all of the income investment anti-redemtions are wherewithall from time to time.
Thank you for having me here today.

If Gaspo heard from a guy at Equinox who knew a guy who knew Zukerberg in college, Gaspo would have reported better odds in his news story. Probably like 60/40.
What to do? What do do? Reviewing the Goldman Facebook deal was difficult. What should we do?? It was like like my physician said after seeing the results of treating me for ED with Cialis, “That’s a hard one.”
Ed Hocken and I discussed the case with Nordberg. Ed stated that there he was 100% sure that there was a 75% chance that 3/4 of the staff was “50/50″ on the deal. The other 2/3rds were undecided.
One thing was sure and it wasn’t deodorant: We were under enormous pressure. Oh sure, not the enormous kind of pressure that the thighs of a well oiled fat girl makes when you’re doing your Gene Simmons impression under a wool blanket….but pressure just the same.

maybe the interest was there but it wasn’t worth the scrutiny?

Yes Charlie, I am the one that is the rookie dumbass, not you or the dipshits at the SEC. I leak the deal, the SEC forces FB to IPO because they need to look relevant. GS handles the IPO at 7% and I end up receiving a fee of $350Mil instead of writing a check for $450Mil and the Goldman HNW clients still get their allocation at a markup which I also pocket. I could continue to explain it to you, the next step involves our prop desk shorting the stock the day after IPO. Maybe I should just quit and be a freelance writer since I obviously have no idea what I am doing.
Is FB – a medium for gossip and entertainment – worth all this activity? Or is this a tacit acknowledgment that the Internet is owned by a few companies like Google and FB and everyone else has to have some form of touch points on it? Why aren’t deep pocketed valley firms like Kleiner Perkins not interested in FB, but more investment banking firms like GS, and overseas Russian firms? Has FB become a platform for making artificial money?

Amateur night!
Classic story of Private Bankers trying to be Private Equity (in this case more Growth Capital) professionals. This is seriously SO “Fordham MBA” of GS.
Nice job!
perfect but last line should’ve been “Do you hear yourself talk? I might kill you tonight.”
FTW.
