<<I bet your little 100 share shorts make a big difference to Leon Black's $75 million investment. >> I love stuff like this. How many times have you heard folks mention that Soros or Allen or whoever made an "investment" in a company, suggesting that they were somehow intimately connected with the deal and intended to watch over operations directly themselves? And moreover, that that was a sufficient condition for sending your hard won dollars in the same direction? Yeah, Black is the Principal and Founding Partner of Apollo Management, L.P. and Apollo Advisors, L.P. and other rleated firms. But could you explain to me what you think the direct involvement of Black will be here, and not the indirect relation via Apollo? This is a drop in the bucket for Apollo, and I'll bet once we learn the terms of the financing we'll see that they (Apollo) got pretty darn favorable terms. Anaxagoras

<<Hey Plumpy your the biggest joke I have come across on the SI Board. I bet your little 100 share shorts make a big difference to Leon Black's $75 million investment. The difference between you and Leon is that you are a nobody investor and will remain a nobody investor - no matter how often you see yourself post.>> Sorry to burst your bubble bud, but you have absolutely no idea of Leon Black's position in RRRR. Currently there is no $75 million deal, only announced plans of one. If and when a deal is struck it will be detailed in an SEC filing. But, in the event the $75 mm deal is done, I will bet you Leon has zero risk on his investment, with a floorless convert deal or he's shorting stock to suckers like you - right now, to cover the money he will invested in RRRR stock purchased at much much lower prices. RRRR has zero biz that is significant, interesting or valuable, only a public vehicle that allows them to put out hyped up press releases so suckers like you run out and buy the stock these guys own for pennies... Good job carp boy, you sucked in the bait like a typical small brain bottom feeder. Glad to see you're holding up your end of the food chain. I suggest you learn a little more about the equity financing biz before you open your mud sucking pie hole again.
