Probe Into Hedge Funders Death Reveals Sordid World Of Sex, Cocaine, And Male Go-Go Dancers

New York Times:

A life of private jets and black-tie balls ended with Seth Tobias, a wealthy investment manager and a familiar presence on CNBC, floating face down in the swimming pool of his mansion here.

Seth Tobias, a regular guest on "Kudlow & Company" on CNBC, was found dead in the pool of his home in Florida. His brothers say his wife killed him.

It was just after midnight on Sept. 4 when Mr. Tobias's wife, Filomena, frantically called 911. "Please send somebody, please!" Mrs. Tobias screamed. "He's not breathing!" By the time the police arrived, she had pulled her husband's body to the edge of the pool, where she cradled his head in her arms, sobbing.

Mr. Tobias, who was 44 years old, had apparently suffered a heart attack, his brother Spence said at the time. The police did not consider his death suspicious.

Golly, remember when we use the phrase "party like 'rockstarz'" to indicate the totally excessive lifestyle? This makes the decadence of my generation look like child's play. Even though I think Seth's partying will look like a tea party compared to what I'm guessing we'll discover when they lift up the rock under which religious leaders reside.

Somewhere in all this juicy gossip there are the makings of a good movie script called "Hedge Fund City". Robert Downey Jr. could play the role of Seth. Maybe they could give Jim Cramer a cameo role to add local color. I can't wait for it to come out on DVD.

This lower-level henchman vapor-locks at 44.

On the other hand, - Cheney has lived since The Crusades on a Walmart pacemaker and he's still committing treason at full throttle.

Amazing.

American greed will be its disaster. Everything in America is purchased on credit. The illegal Iraq Occupation for oil is on a credit card - wait till China decides it wants its money. AMerica is fucked - a house of cards.

Keep consuming America - until their is nothing left except your smouldering body in a crematory in a US detention center.

Why should I feel even the slightest bit of sadness about this dweeb? If Lord Fauntleroy would have been making a living doing an actual honest day's work maybe I would care. Wall Street is full of shit bags like this turd. Jack Out.

*Bill Ash, a former assistant to Mr. Tobias, said he had told the police that Mrs. Tobias confessed to him that she had cajoled her husband into the water while he was on a cocaine binge with a promise of sex with a male go-go dancer known as Tiger.*





Well he's a republican too? Why am I not surprised?
