Does that ever happen to rich guys? I remember when Donald Trump was $300 mln in the hole in the 80s. It never seemed to bother him so much as being $1000 in the hole bothered me at the time. You never see guys like that on the unemployment line. Still, it does seem like Scholes lost the entire $300 mln he invested in LTCM and now he's at least partially in hock for this $40 mln debt to the IRS. Even if his wife can pay it off out of savings, it must have caused at least a little cloud to pass across his summer's day. But I wouldn't be surprised if it was the humiliation of both events that really stung him. Michael
