Re: Avarice and Greed
Personally, I'm kind of curious about how much of the shady business practices were due to Tony boy, child wonder CFO and not necessarily good old pops?

My thoughts exactly. I'm not sure if it was due to sibling rivalry, a need for praise, or perhaps just caught up in good ol telecom greediness. My educated guess, having been to Coudersport to sit through a few meetings, is that the old man wasn't being told everything in the way that he needed to hear it. Access to the father was controlled by the sons, and it's anyone's guess what they told him (intentionally shady or not). It was a management style that is usually destined for failure even in good economic times. |

I'm guessing the CFO was given a little too much leash, and perhaps dear old dad was spending less time watching the fire.
This should flesh itself out in the next few weeks I would think. Some of these financial accusations are pretty major league.....
