A glimpse of Jake on 9-11
ReplyDeleteThe majority of loans originated by W.J. Bradley are pooled into securities and sold to Wall Street firms. Cantor Fitzgerald, one of our largest counter-parties, lost 658 lives during the attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001.

As part of their remembrance, Cantor has been holding a charity event on the 9/11 anniversary in which they have a list of Celebrities come in to take trading calls from their counter-parties.

Jake participated in this last 9-11 as well.
