And my question wasn't only for ex CFOs, it's for anyone on here. Doesn't matter if you are a police officer, an actuary or an accountant - if you have a very good paying job, would you do what Kalb did, unless you had assurance that RI will be positive? This isn't just buying a risky stock, this is his career, his livelihood.
Just think about it, if RI fails, he goes from $500k / year to unemployment.
I, personally would not have made such move no matter what. I never say it but I'll say it - Kalb knows (was told) something!
