17th Anniversary of 9-11...
On the 17th Anniversary of 9-11, we continue prayers for a path to peace. (Picture above - TishTrek and husband Harry @ the podium inside the United Nations General Assembly Hall in New York City). It was the privilege of a lifetime for us to be with leaders from around the world on a night when honoring excellence in writing and reporting was the common language uniting all of us. As one of the proud sponsors of the Annual U.N. Correspondents' Dinner, we enjoyed honoring excellence in writing and communications by helping to fund scholarships for international university students who had the courage & talent to tackle some of the difficult issues of our time. Through their magnificent words, they successfully created content that helped readers see through the lens of their research & life experiences. These students inspired all of us. I have confidence the next generation will pick up where we leave off.

Politics Before Profits: BofA & Lehman

Welcome to TishTrek - THE JOB BLOG!

Mom - Look what they've done to my great company and my job:

At the height of 2008 Credit Crisis, Bank of America was forced to become 'The Rescue Plan' for Countrywide Mortgage leaving CEO Angelo Mozilo laughing while tanning.

Gov't officials used the crisis as an opportunity to eliminate another Citi & Goldman competitor, the same way they selectively decided not to bail out the Lehman Family's legacy to America - Lehman Brothers.

A clueless Congress made Ken Lewis a villian while the men who did this to our country hid in the Treasury Dept & the Fed, (Summers, Rubin, Geithner). Pres Clinton now admits that Summers gave him really bad advice regarding the risk of derivatives on our markets & the economy. You think?

Best regards,
TishTrek
