I learned about the market's power when I was traded to the Buffalo Bills for $100.

Pro football gave me a good sense of perspective to enter politics: I'd already been booed cheered cut sold traded and hung in effigy.

Significant officials at publicly traded companies are casually and cavalierly engaged in insider trading. Because insider trading has as one of its elements communication it doesn't take rocket science to realize it's nice to have the communication on tape.
