    Heard it on the radio. I feel like he's doing well from the part I heard. I didn't realize he's working for free with no chance of an upside. Is that actually true?

    His only stake in this is his reputation.

    Well, if he turns AIG around, pays off the government, and is still selling insurance he'll get a giant bonus . . . and will have earned it, which is the way these things are supposed to work.

    You know if you weren't so old I'd might like hanging out with you!:lol:

    Back to AIG,
    How many bailouts does AIG need?
    One, Two, Three or Four?
    Who is the one that says enough?

    Wait until next week. I'll be 60.

    I don't know. 100? Fuggem. Let's throw 'em under the bus and write off the billions spent already.

    And I thought I was old!:rofl:
    I think we should let em fold up and close doors so your company can take over!
    Maybe they should put you in charge or we could have meetings here at tigerforums and all vote on what to do!:grin:

    Agree, and if the politicians quit bloviating over 4/100ths of 1% of the projected 2011 deficit, maybe, just maybe, he can repay the government in a couple of years.

    By the way, I am in the black on my AIG stock purchase. It's so shocking to me that I don't know what to do. I may just sell and keep my extra couple hundred bucks.

    Up $.41 today to $1.79. Don't listen to the media. Investors know what's up.
