For those concerned about Rearden M's disappearence:

Quote from Rearden Metal:

I know you've heard the term 'functioning addict'. The term exists because such people do in fact exist. 2007 was RM's top earning year since 2000... and he did it on H. BTW, it would be reasonable to assume that non-dealing drug users don't actually get sent to prison. After all, what logic is there in turning a medical issue into a criminal issue?... but that assumption would be 100% false.

Hope your lawyer gets you out. If he needed H to fight depression, so be it, court hopefully will be leniant. And for the haters, fuck you, walk in the man's shoe first before you cast your stone (to mix metaphors). Good Luck RM.
 
Thanx MVIC & everyone else who expressed their best wishes. And to Bighitter's alias dejour: Perhaps if you didn't jump to absurd conclusions all the time, you could have been a successful trader. How the fuck could RM trade prop if he was a CONVICTED felon, ya ahabal sharmuta.
 
You know how it is RM - it's all about the money, and unfortunately that means prosecuting you. It's a very well run business. Heroin prices must stay artificially inflated and that won't happen unless people like you get arrested. Sucks man.
 
Thanks RM, I just read your article, fits me pretty much. I was on the verge of being addicted to Vicodin here last year but I realized it and quit the stuff... close call really..

Again thanks for checking in with your friends here on ET.
 
Leave the country dude.

You have the money and you can trade anywhere. And you're not tied down with a wife and kids.

Move to a country that doesn't lock up people for having a health issue.

I hope everything works out for you - what they are doing to you is very unjust.
 
As a former addict, I wish you the best of luck staying out of jail. And when you are a free man, as you will be eventually, make sure you stay clean!
 
Quote from rolextrader:

This is the guy who was asking for people to help him find a job at a trading firm because he was upon hard times but failed to disclose to anyone that he not only had a drug habit, but was also a convicted felon on probation.

He never would have passed the standard screen tests for employment and any of us who would have used our influence to help him out at firms we have relationships with, would have a dozen broken eggs on our faces.

My instincts told me from the get go there was more here than met the eye when he posted this.

RM, you make your bed and now you sleep in it. How pathetic and narcissistic of you to come here and ask for sympathy as if people have been waiting with baited breath to hear from you in your absence.

Why so serious?

On a truly serious note - cast stones if you have no vice in your life.

Don't take this personally, because I don't know you that well; generally speaking, I've found the people so willing to judge, and especially the ones inclined to do so quickly, have this simple paradigm view of the world that is 'black and white.'

Guess what? The world is shades of gray, my friend....shades of gray.


Hey RM: I wish you nothing but success in doing whatever it takes to kick your unhealthy addictions and replace them with healthy ones.

We all fall down. We all pay the price for our mistakes in various ways.

Get healthy and well. Tomorrow and every morning is a brand new start. One day at a time.
 
One things for sure, there is NOTHING more annoying in this world than a Heroin junkie who can't support their own habit.


I take it RM didn't have that problem, I'll give him credit for that.
 
RM, I've always enjoyed reading your posts, hope you are free soon and don't look back.

Btw as a fellow libertarian/objectivist I of course love the Rynd reference :)

Best wishes.
