Poor guy, coming soon after the massive SocGen futures trading losses.

Any other time and he would have got away with it, as he manged to win back his losses.

He traded his way out of it too!

It is a fair point and very well made.

Let us be grateful the Septics don't drink and trade.

Look at the results when they are sober.......

Why some people drink at lunch escapes me, is work that awful? If you're doing some meaningless hard labor that doesn't stimulate your mind at all... then I got it. But an office job? lol Guy is a slob. Drink up, sell at the market 50 to 1, woohooo, where the ladies at??
