Ditto that, I work for MedQuist, the biggest transcription company. Hope he stays away from us.

Mr. Soros will either gobble up or overrun MedQuist IMHO.

Heh... I briefly worked for the transcription company "ddi," just before and just after it was swallowed up by MedQuist. Frankly, I work for a small and lean California transcription company... my boss pays better than the national companies and gives me less hassle.

I know MedQuist has troubles of their own right now, with lawsuits, offshoring VA Administration medical records, etc.

There's $$ to be made in that business. Wife and I ran our own medical transcription business and were building up fairly well until she got cancer. I couldn't handle the entire thing myself, and for various reasons that I won't go into here, we had to give it up. But the $$ was there and I can see how the national companies are making such a thriving venture out of it. Heck, at one time we had 15 - 18 associates working for us, and the business was still building on physician-to-physician recommendations alone, without us having to knock on any doctor's doors.

(BTW she is in remission these past 6 years. It took her a while to build up her strength again, but we don't have it in us to turn over that business stone again. We're looking at something else.)

Having worked for a Corporation that Soros bought out, I can suggest to those working for the purchased company that they start looking for new employment. This guy rapes and pillages, then sells the carcass!

Warburg Pincus LLC and Soros Private Equity Partners LLC acquired Spheris Inc. in a secondary buyout from Parthenon Capital LLC, .............likely paid more than $200 million for the business.......

About Soros Equity Partners L.L.C..........Soros Private Equity Partners L.L.C., an investment affiliate of Soros Fund Management L.L.C., is responsible for making direct equity investments on behalf of Soros Private Equity Investors L.P. Soros Fund Management is the well-known investment advisory firm founded by George Soros.

Hmmmmm. All those LLC's (limited liability corporations).........usually put together to hide real ownership. Maybe Soros got some of the Dims involved? Or maybe Terayza's an investor?

27M is probably just what he admits to, he may have spent a far larger amount
