Somerset Capital Management are doing what they are paid to do - identifying opportunities for their clients to grow their wealth. Their marketing leaves a bit to be desired however.

& of course helping themselves along the way
Do you think that their marketing would have been better if done on the quiet so none of us would know what they were up to?
Is that what you mean ?

A nice piccy of your hero lasterman. I'll send it off to him he may sign it for you.

Disaster capitalism is the smack head of the industry , the lowest of the low .

I'd sooner manage on a state pension than make money by that method .

Making huge sums of money on the back of misery , death and tragedy .

No different from drug cartels in my opinion .

Good post and spot on animal. Some people on here have no sense of morality at all when they defend this sort of stuff. How they sleep at night is beyond me. Always look after number one first is their mantra. Fortunately most people on here are decent human beings like yourself.

What a sad state some of the human race is becoming...

Wow nice guy your hero:

You need to find yourself some better heroes to worship. It reflects badly on you..He is basically an all round tw at and scumbag but hey he is a bloody good capitalist.

By the sounds of that I would think there are probably many people who wish him some serious harm...

Show me where I expressed an opinion about Jacob Rees Mogg one way or the other. Why do you just make stuff up?

but Rees Mogg and his companies have generated infinitely more money fo the exchequer and the NHS than you or I ever will.

for a start...you don't even know you are doing it...sounds like you have a high regard for him...and I'm the one making stuff up!

A coronavirus drive-through testing centre has been introduced in Sheffield.

Health chiefs say it is part of extensive plans they are putting in place Nationwide to tackle a range of scenarios as the virus spreads.

There are currently two confirmed cases in South Yorkshire.

Sheffield Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation has said in a statement that a specially trained team will test people who are given an appointment by NHS 111 at a location just off the Sheffield Parkway.

There's a few examples of profit from disaster situations.
I've already mentioned the supermarket s. Close them down? Nasty people.
Contractors salvaging and repairing flood damaged homes. Stop them? Disgraceful
Contractors supporting the forces during war is a long standing example. Halliburton get a lot of flack for providing support functions in the US such as cleaning, catering, accommodation. Someone's got to do it otherwise the troops wouldn't get fed or kept warm/cool. The army would grind to a halt as they don't have the resources or time when it,s full on and into battle. Don't go to war then would be one argument.
PPE, ventilators, equipment. Lots of money to be made but I bet they,RE earning it. Stop these nasty suppliers making a profit whilst working 25 hours a day

There's a huge difference between profiting by providing the needs we all rely on and hedge funds that specialise in disaster capitalism .

You don't have to invest this way , you have a choice , there are thousands of other funds you can choose .
