Now I put in the title of my Periscope that I tweeted an article about RBS, the Royal Bank of Scotland, and apparently they've been caught. There must be some tapes or something in which members of the bank in the lending department were talking about how they were quite aware that they were destroying the housing market and therefore much of the economy of the United States by making loans that they knew to be fraudulent. Let me just think about that. A gigantic bank was making loans, mortgage loans apparently, that they knew to be fraudulent and they knew would destroy the economy of the United States according to these recordings that are alleged. So let me add "alleged" to all of this just to stay out of trouble. So alleged, alleged, alleged, alleged, alleged. All right, now I'm not in trouble.

Now you might ask yourself, Scott, why did you tweet this? Is it because it's a slow news day? Well, it is, but that's not my interest. Is it because it's a banking story and I used to be a banker? No, no, that is not why it has my interest. It has my interest because years ago I had a little trouble with the Royal Bank of Scotland. Yes, I personally had a little bit of trouble with the Royal Bank of Scotland. Now I'd love to tell you about it, but let's just say lawyers were involved, a lot of lawyers, and I can't tell you about it because one of the things that lawyers often end up doing is saying, hey, when this is all wrapped up, how about we don't talk about it. So I can't talk about it.

But let me tell you a few general things that I can, I feel safely that I can say. One is this. There are two things that you want to avoid in this world. There are lots of things you want to avoid, but I'll talk about two of them. One is you don't want to ever get in a conflict with an entity that has billions of dollars and very expensive lawyers. If I can tell you anything, that would be good advice. Do not get involved in a dispute with an entity that has billions of dollars and can afford very expensive lawyers. Don't do that.

Here's the second bit of advice. Don't get in a dispute with an angry cartoonist. There's also a hypnotist and will stop at nothing to crush your balls. Don't ever do that. You should never be in either one of those situations. Just a general statement.

So I can't tell you more than that. I can just tell you that the Royal Bank of Scotland is one big frickin' piece of crap, if I may. Implore you, if any of you do business with the Royal Bank of Scotland, I would ask you to stop. Consider all alternatives. If you're working with any kind of a subsidiary, just know if you're American, you know, this can go for the rest of you too, but if you're American, you should know that they tried to destroy your country and that you should never do business with the Royal Bank of Scotland based on this article in Business Insider, because now we know that they were trying to destroy your country, Americans. Why would you ever do business with them again?

So that's the end of my little rant. I wish I could tell you more. I wish I could tell you more, but that's all I can tell you.
