    Sadly, all trust is GONE within the financial system. 

    We are seeing the breakdown continue to accelerate in all areas of finance.

    The only sensible option is to stack. 

    Don’t ever stop…even as they manipulate the price downward.

    We live in a sick world….Be strong and dont ever give up!

    If he’s even inept of killing himself, or of properly being killed for the good cause, one wonders about the others.

    I think there is more to this story….. I don’t see someone killing themselves over this scandal. I think Wassendorf knows something more sinister is going on….. a la the speculation around the Fed, CFTC, JPM, GSachs, London Banks, Libor scandal, etc etc all being in on this whole scam. Of course the human psyche always thinks there is more to the story…

    I think you are giving him more credit than is due.  He was pilfering customer money for many years.   And he was hoping to get lucky and get it back.   But when the regulators wanted electronic statements from the bank instead of paper copies that he could alter, he knew the gig was up.

    So he took the coward’s way out…
