Interesting, I believe he was an advisor to Obama's campaign on issues regarding the real estate market and its collapse and the impact on the economy.

According to the article:, "He had a zest for life. He has a wife and kids and he had so much in his life."

Wonder if there is more to the story....

We'll have to come up with a new word for Arkancide.

I think the Obama administration is off to a faster start (with respect to mysterious deaths) than the Clintons.

Is it wrong that my thoughts were “why did they have to make a mess of the car”?

I bet lost a lion’s share of his money like Merkle did over in Germany this week. He probably decided that he would rather die than face the humiliation of his peers by becoming a “common” guy again.

He left a wife and kids too, b*stard probably didn’t care what he did to their lives by doing this in his selfishness.

7% commission on sales, 10%+ on what went through the auction. I bet he did alright a few years ago.

What you should wonder is what did he and the other billionaires that have checked out early know about the economic situation that we don’t. They chose to abandon the world rather than live through what is headed our way.

Saw this earlier and wondered the same; wonder more, hearing that he was an Obama advisor and not a ‘breath’ about this association. Also; had been wondering since beginning of Blago scandal, when the ‘fix it’ team might come in and take care of extraneous business.

Isn’t that career in the same category as a lawyer, no big lose.

How many of these guys who lost megabucks and screwed people over, are going to commit suicide, and how many are going to be “helped along”?

Particularly if Madoff and others have been involved in laundering money for Russian mafia and other cartels...
