I just got a letter to the editor published to the Financial Times.

Happy dance time.

Basically, it’s about something that I’ve written many times; that there should be a requirement for insurance like financial products to have insurnace like regulations, such as the 260+ year old requirement that you cannot take out insurance on somethting that it is not yours to lose.

Of course, I understand that this actually does not mean much in the greater scheme of things: People get LTE’s published all the time.

Of course, I don’t have what the conquoring Roman general had, a slave whispering in his ear that fame is fleeting, but I do have a cat with a piece of bacon that has been taped to it.
