As the new controller for the state of New York, Tom DiNapoli has a lot to learn and in a short amount of time. The writing is on the wall about Tom and people have begun to take potshots.
This from the Daily News Op-Ed:
Intercepted mail: Dear Mr. Tom DiNapoli! Greeting please! As barrister to widow of late vice president of Nigeria, I have honour to seek confidential U.S. agent for take custody of $50 trillion in gold! Kindly provide bank account number so as to proceed with ...Tom, this came to us while you were off attending the How To Be A Controller 101 class down at the Sheldon Silver Academy For Loyal Lads. We forward it with advice: This is the type of investment opportunity you should avoid as sole trustee of New York State's $145 billion pension fund.
Also, forget that gypsy lady who says she found $1,000 on the street. And please note that Beanie Babies and Pez dispensers are no longer blue-chips in the collectibles marketplace.
Damn! What will he do with the horde of Beanie Babies up in Albany? Seriously though, this guy has no experience and was picked despite that because of his buddies in the legislature. So what will he do with New York's $145 billion dollar pension plan? All I have to say is that hopefully he won't be another Hevesi, who is a convicted thief in case you didn't know.
