The fact that they missed Maddof in such an embarrassing way and are now so universally perceived as 'do-nothing' is exactly why they would go tilting at windmills to put on a show of having reformed. To be frank, I'm just as jealous of GS as the next guy, but case just filed looks weak at...

What complete nonsense. God, I need to stop wasting my time on this board ... 1. Paulson didn't pay "Goldman $15M to create this new asset class ..." a. Paulson bought part of one side of a two-sided transaction. Paulson paid a commission. It didn't explicitly pay for creation of the...
