Jerome Kerviel can't catch a break.
He's the mid-level functionary allegedly responsible for a $7.2 billion (BILLION!) loss for Societe Generale, the not-as-big-as-it-used-to-be French bank.
In early reports he was painted as a financial mastermind. Now, according to The New York Times and others, he's "Mr. Average,"
He never got further than a green belt in Judo; attended an "average college" where he got "unremarkable grades."
Worse, it appears he didn't personally profit from his "rogue" trading.
If you're gonna get caught for perpetrating massive fraud, wouldn't you rather go out looking like James Bond rather than Homer Simpson?
Well at least he's a Facebook star.
