Just finished The Lords of Easy Money (Leonard). Took 2 days. It should be required reading in all business/MBA programmes. I did my MBA in 1990 and we read Liar’s Poker. Back then the Fed wasn’t even on the curriculum. Financial Engineers should read it too so they understand in the way Brad Pitt’s character understood in The Big Short.

I hope they've hired DEI officers to make sure the retreats equitably distribute the services.

You are now imagining the lovechild of Janet Yellen and Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson.

The EY news is shades of Arthur Andersen. They are even looking at spinning off their consulting business just like AA did. All our institutions are corrupt.

Thanks Rudy, always entertaining. (I’m also a twitter refugee). Also, the more you know, the worse it gets. Some days I feel like the character from clockwork orAnge movie: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/375065475188709147/

My personal savings rate is only low because I've been busy spending my money on Russian hookers, but sometimes my dad (who's dead, btw) has to wire some extra $$ to me to help cover the costs. Too bad those pesky bank rules make that a problem. I'm sure they take personal checks.

Has the Fed included the "Russian hooker" utilization rate in their analysis?

Not yet, there still working on cataloging the vast spending by the 1% on high end pedophile retreats. The Fed staff are busy doing site visits and adjusting their “models”
