"This judge also interrogated me if our claim against UBS is just for money, I did agree, my position was that our case is for human rights and in the interest of the public and for the defense of this rising beautiful class of self-directed traders, providers of prosperity and truth for the humanity. I also added that we had decided to give all the money to charity, except a little bit for us to paint the house after the fire and, to pay our lawyers, advisors, and supporters back and to have small trading capital and living expenses covered for six months. He asked me – so you lived three years in Lyford Cay (which is one of the most prestigious communities in the world) for 3 years without electricity, and I said yes. And you are going to give all this money to charity? Not only, replied I, we are going to sit on a big table with all the people who helped and supported us during this years, no one is wealthy among them, and we are going to decide how we can use this money to make the Bahamas and this world a little bit better, to which he laughed in my face, in the court room."
Mate... I have to break it to you... this all reads like a money grab, bordering smear campaign to UBS etc.
The way I see this, you bought an expensive house in the Bahamas... then you ran out of money for upkeep and feeding your family (which is quite large), since you haven't even been able to pay electricity etc... You decided to take out a mortgage and put that money to work, trading futures.... which didn't work out.
Then UBS wanted to get their money back, because you basically defaulted on it... and decided to sell the house. You say the house is worth a lot more than they think... but it seems you didn't really do any upkeep to it... and there was a fire...
Something smells... it might be my feet, it might be the backstory....
