My kind of insider trading ring

DealBook:

A former Goldman Sachs analyst accused of running a $6.7 million insider-trading ring — an international network that included a Merrill Lynch research analyst, an exotic dancer and a Croatian underwear seamstress — has gone missing and may have fled the United States, a lawyer for the Securities and Exchange Commisssion said late Monday.

If I were going to have an insider trading ring, I’d want to have an exotic dancer and an underwear seamstress in my ring.

BTW, I wonder what kind of underwear? The kind exotic dancers wear or tidy whities?

Reminds me of that Christmas carol about the “one horse, soap and sleigh.”

Maybe I’m jaded but “international network” and “insider-trading ring” seems like something that ought to generate more than a relatively piddling $6.7 million.  Exotic dancers don’t come cheap these days.

"BTW, I wonder what kind of underwear? The kind exotic dancers wear or tidy whities? “

I’d have both types, but they’d be fitted out with, um, ‘exotic electronics’.

Tidy whities?  I always thought that was “Tighty Whities” because of the way they fit.  Don’t tell me I’ve been wrong all these years.

These guys need to go down, it’s pretty evident now they’ve been ripping us off.
