Are you suggesting that a President, with an MBA from Harvard, is leading the country in the wrong direction?

I had dabbled in many things, but I had no real idea what I wanted to do with the rest of my life when I arrived at Harvard Business School. 'Here you are at the West Point of capitalism,' the taxi driver said when he dropped me off, and he was right. Harvard gave me the tools and the vocabulary of the business world. It taught me the principles of capital, how it is accumulated, risked, spent, and managed. I was fascinated by the case-study method that Harvard used to teach. I was intrigued by the variety of cases and the course work involving international finance, marketing, and capital markets...I studied, and ran and rode my bike a lot. I was there to learn, and that's exactly what I did.

A very fine orchestration of a trip to the land of national depression.

If wall street is getting $750B, I want some of that action.

My friend and I area going to start a company and bid on government contracts. Like that 25 year old in FL did.

First $300m+ contract we get....were gone...promote the janiter to CEO... Stop in Switzerland to make a deposit and convert to Euros...

Might as well get in on the party while we can!

For $100m euro's I will happily live in anywhere in the world. I'd feel so bad every day as I drove my SLR down the Autobahn with my super model girlfriend in the next seat...not.

To err is human. To forgive, bovine.

If it lasts more than 4 hours see an agronomist.
