THE GOOD NAME HE DRAGGED IN THE DIRT (used his best friend's name as alias)
NY POST ^ | March 11, 2008 | ED ROBINSON

Posted on 03/11/2008 9:26:17 AM PDT by Liz

Spitzer used George Fox as his alias in his prostitute hookup; Fox is a high-powered hedge-fund manager, and political donor - one of Spitzer's best buddies. Spitzer used George Fox checking into a hotel to rendezvous with the call girl......Fox donated $140,000 to Spitzer's campaigns back to 1998, disclosure records show. He travels in well-heeled circles, with movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, Cablevision's Jim Dolan and actress Bernadette Peters at fund-raisers for Spitzer......Fox's founded Titan Advisors 16 years ago, according to its Web site. Fox began as a Coffee, Sugar and Cocoa Exchange and Commodity Exchange floor trader. He created his own hedge-fund in 1992. He rolled his $650 million business into Titan in 2001.

Wouldn’t it be funny if George Fox used Eliot Spitzer as an alias in his liaisons? ROTFL.

That description doesn't necessarily indicate "good name."

Lets read this a little more closely.

George Fox is a big time donor to Spitz and a good friend.

Spitz uses his name to buy hotel rooms and Hookers.

Does Fox know that Spitz was doing this, and in fact was it a way to hide illegal campaign donations and not have records tied to Spitz?

Was George Fox in fact the one paying off Spitz in expensive gooch?

My cynical knee-jerk reaction is that they were both involved with call-girls, Spitzer (since he’s already sunk) is covering for Fox.

Didn’t Richard give the Beaver’s name to the cop when he was questioned about breaking windows of a vacant house?

I thought it was a combination of George Bush and Vicente Fox.

Soros angle!

RYE, N.Y. (HedgeWorld.com)—The recently formed Titan Advisors group, which includes two émigrés from Soros Fund Management, is expected to launch its first fund of funds in early May with about $30 million under management. “We expect the fund to hit about $100 million under management by the end of the year,” said Thomas Holliday, Titan principal, who had previously helped research outside managers for Soros Fund Management.

The team behind Titan also includes Douglas Reid, who departed Soros only three weeks ago after a five-year run as director of banking and finance for the Quantum Fund. The two ex-Soros pros will work alongside George Fox, who is rolling his established $650 million investment management business into Titan Advisors. Mr. Fox will serve as president of the newly formed firm.

How can you check into a hotel without a credit card with your name on it? If cash they want a d/l. Every hotel I have been to at least.

My guess is that Fox was the one making the reservations and paying the room tab..
