Question Would you trust your wife with $2 billion?

AIG CEO transfered $2.2 billion to his wife as a gift before meeting with regulators over accounting irregularities

That is a giant, steamy, stinking pile of bull**** and that should not be allowed, the money should be confiscated and given to the poor...

Martha Stewart did the same prior to being sentenced transferring eleventybillion from her holding in MarthaStewart Omnimedia to her daughter.

I'd trust my wife, especially considering who else are you going to trust with that kind of money?

There's a difference between protecting your assets from frivolous lawsuits and redirecting embezzled money to try to prevent its confiscation. I suspect Mr. AIG dude did the latter.

Warren Buffet is on the line with some kind of dealing with AIG too, isn't he?

Martha was doing the same as a preemptive against penalties/fines.
It's a common measure in business and is lawful.
I'll not comment toward the morality of it all.

Yeah Warren has a spotlight on him but I think he'll shake it.

If I had 2 billion dollars I wouldnt have a wife. They tend to get mad and leave when you are banging 4-5 hell 10 18 year olds at a time.

With 2 billion dollars I dont think I would ever sleep with the same woman twice.

ZMANN....

If you can convince me that if you give a poor man $100,000, he'll invest it instead of spending it on an Escalade with spinners, I'll support that.

Buffet isn't in trouble, he was just cooperating with authorities and was a witness who wasn't a target basically...
