Praise
for Dear Mr. Buffett
"To
Janet - Who should have been listened to much more
carefully in the past---& who will be in
the future."
Warren
E. Buffett
Chairman,
Berkshire Hathaway, Inc.
"[T]he
book’s real strength is the sub-plot that emerges
as Tavakoli tugs vigorously at the seemingly disparate threads
of the current financial crisis, naming names, citing cases
and leaving no schmuck — whether investment bank, credit
rating agency, monoline insurer, mortgage brokers, regulators
and their ilk — unspared. Based on more than 20 years
in the derivatives arena, and having served time at Salomon
Bros, Bear Stearns and Goldman Sachs, she knows that of what
and who she speaks. Should
anyone ever
display the slightest interest in criminalizing the criminals
who led us down this path, a prosecutor
could do worse than ordering up copies for the grand jury."
Greg
Newton (1956-2009), Naked Shorts
"[Tavakoli
has] been railing against emperors wearing no clothes in
the credit derivatives markets forever. If only people had
listened."

of

...was abused by greedy financiers and turned into the monster that led to the
collapse of the financial system." - Yalman Onaran - Bloomberg News | | |
