Riley, Milo, Alice, and Nate discuss a German financier who loves financing a lavish lifestyle of yachts, parties, and handstands (?) by selling illiquid bonds. He's a miracle of modern financial markets - a Mozart figure who toured the continent with Helmut Kohl, wowing crowds of onlookers at his ability to be a businessman at the age of 14. Maybe Tom Hulce would play him in a movie? Check it out! We also discuss a start up and some quick news hits.
