The "ripped his face off" bit is just big talk, I think. There is a mystique about trading, they call themselves "big swinging dicks" and since I don't have a dick, myself, I tend to discount the value of a dick in negotiating contracts.

Hopefully deals work out well for both sides but of course they don't, always. So when a deal goes bad for someone, even though you feel bad for him/her, your duty is to your own side.

When a deal goes bad, you hire me to make him pay, and if he won't pay, I garnish his bank accounts, and have the sheriff seize his property and auction it off, and if that means evicting him, so be it.

I don't send him Christmas cards. Your wife is a nice lady, and I am a bitch, and between all of us, we make the world go 'round. Honey usually works better than vinegar, but sometimes honey isn't enough.
