Alex Lintner

His name was C. Ramo.

an Indian immigrant into the United Kingdom.

And he ran a large merchant store.

So kind of sold everything between sort of Nottingham and Birmingham there in the Midlands in England.

And he had a big heart.

So one of the things that he did is when there were people who he knew well, he did give them drugs, pharmaceuticals on loan.

So they came and he said, look,

I'm sick.

I have this.

I can't pay for it.

Can I just have the medicine so I can get better and I'll pay you in the future?

And he's so trusted and did that.

And then, you know, his immediate relatives, people he knew well, told other people, hey, you know, see your armor does this.

And then people started coming who he knew less well.

And he said, well, who are you?

And he said, well, I, you know, know your brother or your employer or this or that person.

And he expanded it.

And soon, fast forward a bit, there was a line.

outside of his general merchandising force with people who he didn't know anymore.

People coming to him because he had a big heart, he gave away pharmaceuticals, drugs, without any securitization.
