    Marex sticking everything under one roof, they were hoping we would all go to London. But they forget there are other companies around Essex that people can go to, aswell as companies prepared to take an office full of established traders.

    The Fall of Refco Trading Services

    Doesn't mention in there that he is a really nice guy aswell. I had heard so much about Braveheart over the years, i didn't expect him to be so down to earth and really approachable.
