    Does he stay quiet even when his short puts blow up every few years? Impressive, the man must have great self control :)

  3. Ranks as one of the all time bests. Has played large and has been consistent. Very few in the same league. I'm told by people in the not-for-profit world that his foundation is super impressive -- well run, results oriented. Not just, well let's put on the dinner jacket and take Betsy to the ball so her picture can be in the Times.

  4. You mean after the investors have made massive returns year after year and a cabal on the floor conspires to close trade early rather than allow VN time to work the positions?

  5. Is PTJ from a wealthy family who staked him initially? Does anyone know where the first investment came from? surf

  7. If you are managing big $$$ don't you need to be smart enough to outwit the "cabal on the floor"?
