36 this year

quote:





Geert Tack worked as a private banker for ING and managed portfolios of wealthy clients. The Belgian had a lot of respect in the financial world and was known as an up and top professional. His sudden disappearance was also smashed like a bomb. "If Tack himself was having trouble he has managed to keep it well hidden", say colleagues.

What does 'smashed like a bomb' mean?

Probably a bad translation from a foreign writer.

I don't think that these investment bankers dying is necessarily because of some vast conspiracy. It could be (I love conspiracy theories). But, also, a lot of these people in big money are completely miserable and use their quest for more and more money as a cover for their misery.

And everytime one of these "dead bankers" threads gets started on here, someone usually comes along and explains how the list is garbabe with many not really being "bankers".

I'm still trying to figure out what the conspricy angle is with this.

This.

I'm going to search and put together a list of 37 garbage men who have died this year and try to spin something out of it.

I noticed the Asian chick who works the drive through at my bank wasn't there yesterday. Something is afoot.

This "conspiracy" has been thoroughly debunked...many of the 36 aren't even bankers.

Was probably laundering money for the mob and got caught skimming.

It's referred to as leakage but the bosses will have none of that. You can't skim from the skim

Bankers should live forever so if they die, there's something fishy going on.

But they did stay at a Holiday Inn, so there's that.

That looks like a hit on the 50+ crowd.

I'm just a few years away...

ZeroHedge never met a conspiracy theory it couldn't exploit.
