HOW NOT TO GET A
HOW NOT TO GET A LOAN
I'm ashamed to say, I laughed reading this. Very few people have the unique combination of lack of self-awareness and stupidity that allows this loan officer to both be a complete idiot, and tell the world about it. Among other conversational gambits Mohammed Atta tried to help get his loan approved:
"He [Atta] asked me what would prevent him from going behind my desk and cutting my throat and making off with the millions of dollars in that safe."
Throughout the interview, he continued to refer to Bryant as "but a female," and Bryant said, "He would say it with disgust."
