Comment of the Day

"I did work for Allen (Stanford) a few years back and found him to be a genuinely nice person who was willing to pay (on time, no less) for what he wanted. At the time he was focused on ‘trust’ services, which were primarily vehicles for Latin and South American wealth protection from currency fluctuations that were common in the 1990’s. He was extremely generous with the Antiguan people and government which he could afford to do, as the profits from the Antigua banks would incur hefty taxes upon re-patriation to the US. He was heavily tied to the democratic congressional members at the time. I once bumped into Conn. Senator Christopher Dodd in the lobby of his building on Westheimer. Sarbannes and even Sheila Jackson Lee counted on him for support. He does have a bit of history with the State Department, and paid a fine for lax controls related to potential money laundering in the 1990’s. I’ll be curious to find out about the SEC’s findings."
