You're thinking like, oh my God, am I going to lose all my money?
Could I even wind up in jail somehow?
I haven't done anything illegal, but like, could it all amount to that?
Can you walk me through that period of your life that I don't, how do you dig yourself out of something that sounds so deep?
Quite a bit.
It was the biggest personal unsecured loan ever granted to an individual by JP Morgan.
And did you really believe that?
Did you believe?
Missing from the story, though, is your, I don't want to say arch nemesis, but Carl Icahn, who bet against what you were making in Herbalife and kind of squeezed you into this tough position where you had to sell assets you didn't want to sell and ultimately borrow $300 million.
And you guys had a tiff before that, right, where you actually told him, F you?
Yeah, fair enough.
You had a lot of lessons learned coming out of that period.
And actually in your office is a little stone that's on, I see on a lot of the desks here, that has some rules of the road.
And I've heard you say you wrote them down so that you would never stray.

It's actually quite heavy.
Yeah, could you talk through what did you decide your values were going to be that you were going to rebuild Pershing under?
At the end of the day, Bill believes a great company is built by a great team.
He has fostered a company culture of in-person work, made more appealing by hiring good personality fits as well as attractive in-office benefits.
Compensation at Pershing is tied to how one's overall portfolio performs.
