1. She worked for Morgan Stanley, went to Yale and Columbia.
Lynn Tilton is not your typical single mom...

Good for her, I suppose, and her savvy investment skills.

5. Agreed...there are thousands of Yale & Columbia graduates
very few crack $25 million barrier.

So this lady deserves credit for her business skills, intuition,
risk taking etc.

7. She thinks we need to get people back to work in this country.
The opposite of what most private equity executives believe.

I think she's wrong in believing that funneling more government bailout money to these firms is the answer. It's just more supply-side ballyhoo.
