* THE 'TROPHY KIDS' GO TO WORK
In the final analysis, the generational tension is a bit ironic. After
all, the grumbling baby-boomer managers are the same indulgent parents
who produced the millennial generation. They taught their teenagers to

many of those challenging millennials at their companies and wonder how
they can expect the kids they raised to suddenly behave differently at
work. [ http://snipurl.com/trophykids]

866% betting against the subprime collapse. Last month, he did the
unthinkable--he shut things down, claiming dealing with his bank
counterparties had become too risky. Here's his rollicking goodbye
letter.
