here is the issue- you guys have basically turned the “open thread” into a private conversation. and the fact it gets the most posts every day creates the false impression that there is something interesting going on here, which is untrue. mr b- the open thread has skewed your site. get rid of it ASAP.
Not enough detail to comment on, ENY. We are not a “large” hedge fund, nor are we registered. We can essentiall do as we please, like most hedge funds, large or small, registered or not.
You can be sure that Goldman’s management will not encumber how people are paid at Goldman which includes hedge fund managers and private equity managers.
Additionally, this is why they want to pay their TARP money back now!!! Surprise, surprise.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The chief executive of Goldman Sachs is calling for new standards on how Wall Street executives are compensated and new regulation of large hedge funds and private equity funds.
In remarks prepared for an investor group, Lloyd Blankfein says lessons from the financial crisis include the need to “apply basic standards to how we compensate people in our industry” and to set forth specific guidelines on pay.
Blankfein also says the unregulated pools of capital that are big enough to potentially burden the financial system in a crisis should be put under “some degree” of government oversight.
Those would include large hedge and private equity funds.
But it was lovely manufactured drama! Heidi is such an idiot I wanna reach through the screen and smack her. And Stephanie needs to mind her own business.

Possibly maybe, DIBS, possibly maybe.
If Steph minds her own business she’ll be out of work. Her business is BORING!
Same with Heidi, if she leaves that man child then what’ll they do with her?
It’s not fun when everyone’s getting along?
I loved Heidi’s outfit and for once Lauren actually pulled off the red lipstick. She usually looks like the joker when she wears it.
Have an opinion for us, Dave?
