Age problem

[edit]

The age listed in the Blade source is hard to match with him being CCNY class of '59. Voting records found in Google searches indicate an 81 year old living in the right area with the right name, and that would be more consistent. --Nat Gertler (talk) 15:35, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Good call Thanks!Patapsco913 (talk) 15:46, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I found the problem. The article has the wrong date listed. The url states April 8, 2001 which matches a Wall Street Journal article.Patapsco913 (talk) 15:58, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

[edit]

At this point, we have that he was discriminated against by a country club, that he was once quoted for what his investment firm was doing, and that he had an expensive bit of lodging on the market. That's what the reliable, notability-reflecting sources have to say about him. While he is obviously a successful man on some fronts, earning money is what a financier does; I'm not sure I see the notability that calls for him having an article. Am I missing something? Is there disagreement? --Nat Gertler (talk) 14:39, 4 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I was just going to ask what is he known for? The intro isn't very informative. Deb (talk) 09:26, 5 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
