SEASON 2, thursday TV WALLSTREET WARRIORS

Oh, I forgot, but this was in Episode 1:

1. If you are a coldcaller, never try to talk to a woman, just hang up....
 
Quote from Chuck Krug:

i wonder what kind of fees the private equity guy charges to his investors, it seems he has a very large overhead.

I was thinking the same thing.

He rented a Ferarri to drive to a business meeting in the first episode. In the second episode, he had a stretch limo just for himself and then he jumped on a helicopter to take him to JFK from Manhattan because he was running a few minutes behind schedule.

Seems like a tremendous waste of money (in my opinion).

Quote from Pekelo:

In my previous post I criticized the show, but just to show that it wasn't completely without value, here is what I learnt from Episode 2:

1. A $28 Idiot's guide to daytrading beats a 4 years, $80K business school.

2. When you are a business manager it helps if you watch The Amazing race, just in case you have to catch a helicopter in 40 minutes.

3. It is faster to cut shoelaces then untying them. (this was my favorite educational info)

4. Apparently coldcalling people is still a profitable business.

5. Traders in the cottonpit are just one big happy family and they think of each other as brothers and sisters.

I have to admit cutting your shoelaces is lame; we get it you are living large. So how much is a helcopter rental? No one commented on the scary option broker chicks, (2008 and still no hot chicks in the pits) Let's send Rennick in with three bottles of tequila.

:p

I agree, but don't forget that:

A. - He is on TV, so wants to build himself up. Probably usually takes cabs to the airport, and rents a Camry not a Ferrari. I would do the same if I was on TV.

B. - He's 28 and manages 100's of millions (oooh I am jealous), He must be making several million a year and could afford to own the Ferrari and garage it. He could probably even afford the limo's everyday.

I would have liked to have seen more of the English/Pakistani girl from season 1. The only other trader they showed was Alex, but he was a piker compared to the girl, who claimed to be trading the Schatz and making/losing 100's of thousands a day. She was a bigtime trader (supposedly).
