Do you believe this? AIG ad 9/2005 the Kiss of death!

National Geographic magazine September, 2005 special issue, rear cover ad by AIG. My wife came across this magazine.

The ad depicts a small girl very dressed up with a crown barrett, I guess indicating some very loving child that needs protection for her financial futures. Someone that is very loved and cared for. Every ones little Princess.

It states:

                                                                    THE FINANCIAL ORGANIZATION

They made it 3 years, almost. They anticipated 200 hundred years. What a mis-calculation. I think they should of consulted their risk department before they did this ad or was it the kiss of death. How many Widow and Orphans did they shake up. Let us hope they do make it through this crisis and the policy holders don't get hurt. 

This was when the markets were topping out. It is always when, the participants are most optimistic and righteous, that they are completely wrong!
