From foxnews, this is what I would call greed:
A British rival to bond trader Cantor Fitzgerald plotted to poach the devastated firm after it lost 658 staffers in the World Trade Center attacks, an explosive lawsuit charges.
The bosses at Garban Intercapital Management Services discuss their scheme to hijack three top Cantor staffers in an operation its parent company's CEO described as "a heist," according to secret e-mails cited in a London lawsuit filed by Cantor this week."This is the time I have been waiting for," gloated one e-mail.
London-based Icap, Garban's parent company, was blasted for making "a systematic and carefully planned attempt to poach leading brokers" from Cantor while the firm was struggling to rebuild and raise funds for its widows and orphans.
I can't fault the guy for making a television ad in an effort to "rebuild and raise funds for its widows and orphans. That's very different from what the firm above was doing in the wake of the disaster and what others did trying to profit from the attacks.
