  • Personally responsible for portfolio of many many Jewish people.
  • Prepared cash flow analyses and verified/submitted falsified client quarterly reports.
  • Interacted with bank and in-house Trading/Ponzi Department.

Eliot Spitzer New York, New York 2000-2007

Public Relations

  • Organized public appearances designed to improve public image of client.
  • Lied to the press about all sorts of things which ultimately made my job more difficult (I don’t run from challenges)
  • Made sure that Eliot’s hookers kept their mouths shut. Sometimes. Fired for cause in 2007. Shit.

Arthur Anderson Chicago, Illinois 1997-2002

Accountant

  • Created offshore accounts for Enron, allowing them to hide from American tax laws, which saved the company (b)millions.
  • Moved assets through variety of accounts, both legal and illegal, to ensure that losses were properly hidden.  This raised share price exponentially.

American International Group New York, New York 2000-2009

  • Traded Credit Default Swaps with multibillion dollar institutions, engaging in trades that affected the global economy….negatively.
  • Showed dedication to company by agreeing to work for $1 salary in 2008.  Still got that bonus though. Oh hell yes.
  • Shorted AIG upon receiving inside information about lowering of credit rating through mother in law’s accounts. Avoided SEC, showing creativity and a sticktoitiveness that could make a difference at YOUR company.

United States Congress Washington, DC 111th Session

Representative

  • Voted for American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
  • Stripped important language regulating use of said act.
  • Later claimed to have voted against said act.
