    GEORGE, DO NOT WORRY ABOUT HOW THE RIGHT IN THE UNITED STATES HAS DEMONIZED YOU. I ADMIRE YOUR ROLE AS A PHILANTHROPIST AND GINVING TO AFRICA, PARTICULARLY LIBERIA. I HOPE WE CAN TALK MORE ON LIBERIA WHEN I JOIN TWITTER IN A FEW DAYS.

    REGARDS

  • I heard that the crisis is the best time to became a millionaire.

  • Hehehe, there is always someone who wins when someones lose, its called balance.

  • Personally I don't think Soros is to blame. He is honest in the sense that he is just out to make money. It's the bankers who took excessive risks, made big bonuses and got bailed out with public cash.

    As Nicholas Nassim Taleb has said - repeatedly - this is the worst of capitalism and socialism combined. The bankers privatised the gains and nationalised the losses.

    At least Soros was gambling with his own (and his *pro* investors) cash.

  • d***head.

  • Well this is better than all of those who said they foresaw the crisis but lost money anyway.
