In 1994 I had an oppurtunity to own 5% of Datek through Shelly, flew in to NY and he offered to buy my BD, he showed me his ridiculous sports pager system and I then balked.

I guess I will never know what could have been.

But regarding this newest developement , you can blame the , in my opinion , criminal enterprise known as the NASD, for allowing them to get off so easy DATEK is needed by the NASD they comprise a huge part of their budget, and teh NASD isnt about to bite the hand that feeds them unless they use billy bob teeth.

How's this for a job listing:

Wanted: Chief Executive Officer to run the "greatest company in the world." OK, we used to be the "greatest company in the world;" now we're the "largest bankruptcy in the history of man!" This position requires political contacts, particularly with the current or upcoming administrations, financial creativity, a love for Star Wars, and the ability to tell people nothing is wrong when quite clearly very much is wrong. Loose moral compass is not a negative. Being Texan is a plus.

Perks include an empty executive suite, country club membership where no one will play golf with you, and luxury suites at a temporarily eponymous professional baseball stadium. Salary is negotiable, success options will be lavish. Failure options will also be lavish, just not quite as lavish as success options. Best of all, we encourage "success" to be defined as "getting away with it."
