  • Frankly, Paddy is an alcoholic. I think he purposefully does bad investments so he has an excuse for 'very badly needing a drink'.

    He's also addicted to pen throwing.

  • Great video paddy great examples! you need your own TV show.

  • Badly needing a drink. ;) :)

  • Funny thing is that the banks were not, for the most part, creating these mortgaged backed securities. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were. They buy mortgages from banks enabling the banks to make more mortgages. They then bundled these loans up into bonds having just a good enough mix of risk to make them AAA. The big banks bought entire blocks of bonds and no matter what happens after that, as FMe and FMc created the underlying security that defaulted, they are the ones at fault.

  • the thing is:if you see lots of money being loan in short time to a state like california or greece stay out because the guys who are saying to invest are the ones who are fully aware that debt cant be paid, sacks does this against california and now greece they are playing with the planet ACRTUALLY I THINK GREECE WAS BECAUSE OF CALIFORNIA BECAUSE SACKS LOST MONEY ASWELL THERE
