  1. A quote from the article “Roger Montgomery, from Montgomery Investment Management, worry that the best people will stop taking the top jobs”. I love your work Monti but that statement is a boring dogma, a tired old bluff that more people need to call. Let’s call it and see what happens. It could hardly make things in corporate Australia any worse.
    “”If that happens, shareholders will be worse off,” Mr Montgomery told the ABC.” Shareholders have done great from banks operations for a long time, but they have decimated the Australian economy like a cancer.
