Yep, if Mark can get together a finance package with a bank/finance co like HSBC or Certegy, he will not only sell dramatically more new Sterns , but i reckon, his floor stock would be wiped out, within the month. (bet ya a thousand bux to a penny mark i am right ! lol)
I used to have a saying when i bought n sold real estate, and made alot of money after buying n selling 3 houses over a 2 year period,
"He who has the finance wins".
(the second saying was cross all ya toes and cross all ya fingers when tell about 50 fibs when ya fill the forms out) lol
But i say, get the finance organised, and i would buy a brand new Simpsons and Shrek or Family guy tomorrow.
