Shake Your Money Taker....

AllTheFinanciersThatFit

So, almost immediately after I posted this, in which I reiterated that the Fortress Investment Group has lent Millennium more than twice as much money as we have, I received a couple of long and lingering visits from, guess who?

(and no, it most definitely was not either Cummings or Bachman)





And just in case you've forgotten, Fortress is also deep into Whistler mega-developer, Intrawest.

And that investment is really, really big (as in billions).

And the really big backers behind those billions almost called in their chips on Fortress recently.

So, I dunno know about you but that suggests to me that the major investor in the Olympic Village Boondoggle (ie. Fortress) might be looking for a little extra junior partner-provided cash to hoover up.

Especially if that cash from the junior partner (ie. the City of Vancouver) is real instead of a teeny-tiny, hidden-hedgefund nut that has already been leveraged a hundred times over.

If not more.

OK?

Actually, a whole bunch of good folks from 'boltonmuldoon.com' have come calling in the last hour or so..........Looks like, maybe, they too don't give a hoot-in-heckfire about all this 'Leak-Triangulation-Conspiracy' codswallop either.....
