Meriwether to Get Lifetime Achievement Award

This has got to be a joke.
John Meriwether, the former head of Long Term Capital Management, is getting the Alternative Investment News‘ 2006 Lifetime Achievement Award.
Let’s skip over the fact that someone is giving out lifetime achievement awards for hedge fund managers, but John Meriwether???
This clown not only saw his fund blow up, but nearly took down the global financial system while doing it. That’s an achievement alright.
