Would You Work For Eliot Spitzer?

Jun 13 2008

Would you take a job in Eliot Spitzer's new real estate investment fund?

A New York newspaper reported recently that the deposed governor and former New York State Attorney General sounded out allies in the labor movement about eventually investing pension money in a planned venture that would seek bargains in the battered real estate sector. Spitzer apparently would manage the fund himself - thus following in the footsteps of his father, who built a Manhattan real estate empire in the 1960s and 70s.

Bottom-fishing in real estate is a popular activity of late, drawing some of the biggest names in the private equity world.

There's no word on whether Spitzer will be doing any hiring for the fund. If he does, would you think about joining his team?

Sure. The guy's a bit of a cad, but certainly driven to succeed. And I bet a LOT more careful in everything he does from now on.

  • Why not, its strange that this is a question if he can raise the capital and knows how to bottom fish, his money is just as good as anyone elses. He still is bright and has a background in this business.  He got caught doing something he should have know better.  It's over he paid by resigning the Govership so let get over it.
