Can't help but think that Our Tel is increasingly coming to resemble hapless manager Mike Scott from the US version of "The Office":
 
Toby: Didn't you lose a lot of money on that other investment? The email?
Michael Scott: You know what Toby, when the son of the deposed king of Nigeria emails you directly, asking for help, you help! His father ran the freaking country! Ok?
 
Mmmm...Western Gulf Advisory?
 
Jim: How is this not a pyramid scheme?
Michael: Alright, let me explain. Again. [draws on board] Phil has recruited me and another guy. Now, we are getting three people each. The more people that get involved, the more who are investing, the more money we're all going to make. It's not a pyramid scheme, it is a... it's not even a scheme per se, it's... [Jim draws a triangle around Michael's diagram] ... I have to go make a call.
 
I feel sorry for Tel who always seemed a good bloke trying to put something back into the community through financing the Nix- but due to his financial misfortunes is now clearly floundering.
This quote from this morn's Dom Post article is pure Michael Scott: 
 

Mr Serepisos refused to answer questions yesterday but instead tried to persuade The Dominion Post to stay silent on the issue.

"I'm telling you not to write a story because, if you do, you will end up with egg on your face. It's not a threat but don't write a story." Mr Serepisos, who has debts of over $200m, has consistently said that he would receive a US$100m loan from Bahrain-based Western Gulf Advisory even though he has been waiting for the funds since February.
