Not great but better for sure
Let's just be ready for the JJR discussion
Ming will question this JJR deal carefully as it has just been sprung on
him. For instance splitting off the Burnham Securities business has been
in the works for 15 months but we just jumped in and executed it at a a
high cost to BAM since our last meeting Ming.
This call tomorrow will be important you guys have some sound reasons for
doing the JJR deal and they can be discussed.
By the way Sebastian did you just send me the outline earlier for the fuck
of it? You must have had this write up ready to go
Larry Liu might also cause some questions Henry will be very careful about
checking out that Chinamans reputation and background. How did you meet
him? And does he actively participate or is he silent for the most part?
