Steve Jobs : Is Man Love Okay on Wall Street?
Posted by: admin in VIDEOS, tags: Apple, Berkshire Hathaway, Charlie Munger, Jim Goldman, Steve Jobs, Warren BuffettMan Love is very respected in many arenas in life. For example, in sports, men can wear their favorite athlete’s jersey or hat and it is a sign of respect and appreciation for that athlete. There is never any ridicule or whispering about the state of someone’s manhood just because they wear a replica jersey or uniform. The fact that you wear the Zubaz pants to match and might be over the age of 40 brings up a whole new set of issues, but we won’t get into that.
My question developed based on responses from two videos Street Kings full movie I had posted and got feedback on through video websites. Does Man Love have a place on Wall Street? Can you respect and admire someone to the point of openly professing your Man Love for them? I wrote in a previous article that Jamie Dimon was a “Hall of Famer” and a great CEO. I guess that was my little admission of Wall Street Man Love.
The first video was a “tongue and cheek” video about the “5 Most Overrated Value Investors”. It poked fun at Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger among other people, and pointed out that their track record since the age of 70 has been very ordinary.
The feedback was overwhelming! The comments were personal and they were menacing. If you criticize the Oracle of Omaha, you are criticizing apple pie, Mickey Mantle, and Old Glory. I can only image what Doug Kass must hear when he walks the streets. Obviously, if you go against the flow of main stream Wall Street Man Love, you take your life in your hands.
The second example of Man Love is the clear appreciation Jim Goldman of CNBC has for Steve Jobs and all things Apple. If you follow Jim, the reporter for Silicon Valley for CNBC, you will notice his IPHONE mapping system must not be working well , as Silicon Valley is defined as “Cupertino Ave and the surrounding buildings”. The feedback on this video was pretty light hearted and fun, with such comments as “thank god for saying it” and “Who pays his check, Apple or CNBC?”
So, where does Man Love fall on Wall Street? Is it okay to openly support your favorite company or bank leader? Bank leader will be a tough sell in this world, but what if you are a big John Mack or Jamie Dimon fan? Are JP Morgan shirts and Berkshire Hathaway replica jersey far behind?
I have been beta testing a new software that predicts niche markets at The Internet Time Machine and I am going to have to get my dibs in for the first Dick Fund sweatshirt with the Ghostbusters’ “not allowed” logo over his face. There could be a huge niche market for anti-Man Love Wall Street items!
Better go check with them first…
