Randy Roubini, Not That There's Anything Wrong With That!

















































Its a tough life being Nouriel Roubini. He has been written disparagingly a number of times for his now famous parties at his NY loft. Party-having economist Nouriel Roubini is no longer inviting reporters to parties in his vagina-studded we hear! *(A single tear)*

So, what makes his parties so great?

"Fun people and beautiful girls," Roubini said, grinning. "I look for ten girls to one guy." His friend Bill Clinton, he added, is a fan of this ratio.

Nouriel Roubini has quite the reputation. A Turkish-born Iranian-Jew that was educated in Italy and the US, Roubini’s name recognition shot through the roof after his stubbornly bearish outlook on the US economy turned out to be true. Since 2008, the head of RBE Monitor has made countless appearances on most of the network business news channels, pushing his gloomy views of the US, and the world economy in general. His private party boy life came into mainstream media when a leaked email which Roubini invited his friends to one of his parties, boasting Scarlett Johansson had moved in upstairs to him having paid more than he had for his. Details of the artwork in his loft were rumoured to resemble some aspect of the female genitalia. Hilarity ensued when the Gawker started referring to Roubini as the “playboy professor” who inhabited a “vulva” and “vagina-encrusted Tribeca loft”.

Its bound to happen when you are so high profile. I like it when business experts and professors can party, it shows they have a good sense of balance between professional work and play time. I am also happy to see that my subscription to RGE is being well spent.

Nouriel Roubini has quite the reputation. It reminds me of a story: in a coin flipping competition a lot of people are flipping coins, and the ones who can flip all-heads or all-tails earn themselves "quite a reputation".

Don't know why this reminds me of economic forecasting.

While Roubini is free to do everything he wants, my oldfolks always reminds me "don't play with fire and women".

If he still thinks he is a real Jews, he should know this is wrong.
