Nick Leeson

Recommended Posts

Cunning linguists are always popular.  ;)

:lol: I've only just noticed that.

 

Reminds me of a colleague who was always getting her words muddled. She once had an attack of this whilst asking a shop assistant for a "Stunt Kite".

Monsieur Kerviel makes our Mr Leeson's antics look like a schoolboy losing his tuck shop money, n'est-ce pas?

 

Nasty Nick looked pretty chipper on TV today, the thieving little arsewipe.

So while you are considering your lists for 2021, you can look at this article from April: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8243377/Rogue-trader-Nick-Leeson-boasts-doing-stock-market.html

 

Either you can say good luck to him for overcoming a hitch in his life and moving forward.

 

Or you can say you hope the bastard dies for profiting from others' misery...again.

 

The decision is yours.

I was working for BHF Bank at the time of the collapse of Baring's Bank. I personally hope the bastard has a slow and painful death. Several of the substantial loans we made to Baring's we weren't able to recover.

You should be just as irate with the posh boy dum-dums who let him do it. Upper-class nepotism in their being in jobs of any genuine responsibility. If any bank deserved to get Leesoned, Barings was most certainly it.

Was pissed off with all of them. Several friends got made redundant at the time as a result of it.

His ex-missus was reduced to waitressing in a tea rooms in Maidstone - I doubt if he's seen fit to share his new-found prosperity with her either.
