Izzat Salmon Bay...nice place to have an office...

Do you know whose boat that is?

My office is above Anthony's Home Port, looking out across Ray's deck and the entrance to the Locks. Don't know who owns the boat, but it is a 219' Feadship designed by De Voogt and launched in 2008.

Found this on the web, don't know the veracity of it:
"She is (was?) owned by James Simons, founder of what was the world’s most successful hedge fund, Renaissance Technologies."

So that, ladies and gentlemen, is where your retirement portfolio values went.

"Archimedes"[/IMG] "Archimedes", Wasn't he the chap that ran through the streets naked shouting 'Euereka, Euereka' ?





*Euereka = "I have it" in relation to what James Simons, of Renaissance Technologies said in regard to where all your retirement portfolio values went. :D
