The Mysterious Lebanese Speculator M. Yass (My Ass)

Clip from the documentary "Enron - The Smartest Guys in the Room" by Alex Gibney (2005)
Two of the top traders, Louis Borget and Tom Mastroeni, were making their money by trading huge amounts of gas futures, or gambling in common parlance. On top of that, they were skimming money off the top by laundering it through bogus foreign accounts. Just to show they had brass balls, they came up with some creative names for the holders of these accounts, including M. Yass ("My Ass") and M. Smart ("Maxwell Smart").

Every human being that I know and have interacted with in the past 5 years or so is in complete denial of or lack basic understanding of the fact that they completely worship and admire M. Yass to criminally intensive levels.
