Moment of Clarity: LIBOR – Ladies Intimately Bending Over, Rearview

by Lee Camp



Hopefully you've heard mentions of the LIBOR scandal - the biggest banking scandal in years. I need to tell you two things about it. 1) It's not as complicated as it sounds. 2) It does not stand for "Ladies Intimately Bending Over, Rearview." If it did, you would see a lot more coverage of it on the mainstream media.

Sorry, I have to manually input the videos and switch sizes on graphics on the newswire after the blog posts have auto-imported in the wee-hours of the morning. Hence, if you check the newswire first thing in the AM posts are often missing videos etc.
