[Bob] Lavalle, you'll be on a slow boat
to Tiananmen Square.
:17:03
[Terry] Bob Roberts is a tribute
to the possibilities of the American dream.
:17:07
A self-made man at the age of 35,
:17:10
he is rumoured to have a net worth
of something over $40 million.
:17:14
I'm waiting to meet Bob Roberts
in the sanitary confines of the Pride,
:17:18
his functionally designed
two-room trading floor on wheels.
:17:22
Ever since this Iraq business, talking to your
broker's like talking to an insecure child.
:17:26
- Who was that?
- Lavalle.
:17:28
- There goes the pool.
- And the house in the country.
:17:32
Tell me something. The markets
have been in a tumultuous state
:17:36
for the last three years, since the crash of '87.
:17:39
Did you lose money in the crash?
:17:42
- Yeah, right.
- What's funny?
:17:45
Back to work.
The slow lost money in that crash.
:17:48
The smart money got out
before the junk bond hit the fan.
:17:52
That up-to-the-minute, gold-plated information
cost me considerable effort.
:17:56
If I had been out when those calls came in,
I'd have been screwed, but I am smart.
:18:01
I know the importance of paging systems
and mobile phones.
:18:05
Everyone's nerous about the lack of control
of the political situation overseas.
:18:08
You can't readily obtain that information
but you can stay in touch.
:18:13
I won't say too much.
There are things you can do.
:18:16
There are ways you can read the world.
And what I read excites me.
:18:22
W- W-W-W-Wall Street
:18:24
W- W-W-Wall Street
:18:27
Wall Street rap
:18:29
Michael takes a loan
from a Midwestern S&L
:18:31
He puts the money in a quick-drying inkwell
:18:33
Takes a loss, gets cross
Walks to the corner store
:18:35
Pulls a knife, calls his wife
Can't take it any more
:18:38
Look out, Joe, how far will it go
:18:40
Take away the fire
And where does the water flow?
:18:43
S&L
S&L
:18:46
Jerry's in the attic, messing with the static
:18:49
Junior's on the telephone
Nothing problematic
:18:51
Julie's selling T-bonds
Her bill is turning over
:18:53
John is building walls
Manipulating a takeover
:18:55
Look out, Joe, how far will it go
:18:57
Take away the fire
And where does the water flow?
