dmarc117 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I have heard several hedge-fund managers gossiping about Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson. One of the things they say is that, in leaving Goldman for government service, Paulson made the greatest trade of his life. Not only was he required to sell his half-billion dollars in Goldman stock near the high, but also, as Treasury Secretary, he was exempt from capital-gains taxes. By getting out of Goldman while the getting was good, the guy may have doubled his net worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
