We didn't have like computers the way that I guess you have to sift through mounds of paperwork.
I guess it was easier to come to us.
So, you know, you had all these spy shops back.
then that sold all these like cool little a plug that looked like that you know like a plug it was actually a listening device and and we put that device in and see what they were saying which really wasn't that much and uh yeah and then we actually got caught doing that believe it or not because my one day he was incredibly high he like they said something bad about him
way of communicating, but with everything has annotation at the end, you know, my meditation.
Yeah, he calls everyone Bo.
So it's like, he's like a larger than life character.
You know, he's always a very good friend of mine and I respect him.
And, you know, he just did, he did a lot of good stuff.
He personally had people, you know, like, you know, security guards and he did a good job for me.
So, Stratton was actually started, Stratton Securities was started in 1979, I think.
And it was a trading firm that just, you know, did a lot of interbank trading with insurance companies, just traders, right?
And then when the crash came, the firm basically lost all its equity and it was teetering, you know, by a thread.
And right around the time I decided to open up my own brokerage firm,
um you know stratton became available that you could like use their licenses was what was called an osj an office of supervisory jurisdiction so um i jumped on that bandwagon and um that's how it started with stratton uh after a short time another firm named oakmont became available and i wanted to there were some things with about that firm i like had a good clearing arrangement the
trader was uh more professional than what i had so i bought oakmont and that's how i came to stratton oakmont okay so you wind up going around and hiring a bunch of guys and they're these are i don't know how you want to describe them but salt of the earth barely post-adolescent nincompoops but in a loving fun way you know
That's a really interesting scene because it's true.
It comes from a speech that I kind of reconstructed when I wrote my book.
But that came later.
That mentality, let's just say what we were doing at that time was a little different than when the firm first started.
