8. actually, he may have a good case.
When he ran AIG, he stole his money, fair and square. Years ago, I used to work for AIG while going to night skule. What a weird, but profitable place. Ole Hank would have gambled on some things, after all, his was the business of weighing and insuring risks, but even he would have blinked and thought twice about credit swaps, derivatives, and subprimes. He beat his competition by being better at figuring the odds. Free money, as the current AIG cronies thought of it, would have been too expensive for Hank.
