Here’s a fun example of what passes for holiday cheer in the leveraged buyout industry.  The editors and reporters at Private Equity Online, an online high finance rag sheet, sent out their very own Christmas rhyme to their email subscribers.  In this quaint little yuletide yarn, a private equity partner spontaneously decides to spread holiday cheer to his inferiors at the office by sharing the profits of his latest deal – after the “cleaning lady” finds evidence of insider trading and uses it to blackmail the firm!  Ho! Ho! Ho!  God bless us, every one!
