Default Re: It\'s Seppuku time, man!

Strange item to bring to our attention, but while we're on the topic, recently I read of a Japanese Stockbroker who intended to offer 1 share for about 650,000 Yen. He stuffed up and offered 650,000 shares for 1 Yen each. There's a guy I expected would commit suicide. Cost his firm about $250 Million.

Edit: Found an article. My figures were off only a little bit
