On point of principle I would like to invite Matan Feldman to join me on a live zoom webinar with all of his customers and anyone else interested in watching. First Matan can explain how after having no knowledge of topics such as structural subordination and inter-creditor agreements. Or how he came up with a slide on "Competing motivation and stakeholder Interests", which is a direct ripoff of a slide I have used for years on competing interests in the Ch 11 process and another for the out of court process. Tell us Matan, when in your long professional career of restructurings and bankruptcy did you develop your assessment of competing "stakeholder interests"
After you explain your newfound knowledge, conveniently after receiving all of my materials under a contract", then we can do a slide by slide comp of our presentations and you can explain the genesis of each one of your slides, where it came from, what was your rationale, how does it fit in the Bk process and what other sections of the Bk code and ch 11 process do they relate to.
If you genuinely developed the materials yourself that should be apparent to the audience and we will let them vote on your guilt or innocence. If the audience finds you guilty then at the foot note of every slide, you must write this material was misappropriated from someone else and I passed it off as my own because that is just the base level of character and ethics I possess" also you will have to record and intro to your Rx webinars stating that you took this material from someone without attribution and in breach of the terms of an agreement with them" I dont care about the $399 you get for each one, I much prefer you to have to make a public confession of your guilt.
Wow Maud'Dib, sign me up. This is like pay per view of the trainers war. I will probably fall asleep in the first 2mn, since Bk law is not really that interesting. Why not just have a cage fight like MMA? That I can get into. Sounds like Matan did you dirty and you want to call him out and expose him. I like the forgoing any damages idea under your contract and making him record an admission. Never going to happen, but makes a great point. Please post if he takes you up on your challenge.
First off, this sounds very fishy. If true, WSP should release a statement, redact all said materials, and provide a path forward to control for this type of behavior in the future. I'm sure $399 x Q isn't as important as saving their reputation. To be fair, I'm assuming everything you said is accurate and there is--beyond a reasonable doubt--guilt on WSP's side. To speculate, however, I have no reason to believe why anyone would make up such a thing.
Second, I would be very interested in seeing these materials, OP (for personal use only).
Lastly, please keep us posted on how this plays out and/or if a public meeting with WSP takes place.
Will message you a link. It is totally not the $399 per that he gets, although I would take a royalty since that is a tacit admission. So it is very hard to copyright something explaining the bankruptcy code. He obviously makes some changes to so he can claim it is his own creation. However, he would never have know how to organize a presentation and structure along the BK timeline. Once he had a copy of mine his eyes were open and he just decided to rip me off. Now, I do have a breach of contract claim, which I intend to pursue against him if he refuses the public hearing, which I prefer, with Rx and IB analysts who are his customers as his judge/jury.
For instance in my credit and BK slides I use the term Determinants of Credit Quality, he changed it to Determinants of Priority (you can go to his TOC on the Rx course on WSP site and see section titles for each video). He also used the title Competing Stakeholder Interests, where I used Competing Creditor Interests, he uses Distressed Investor Perspective, I give a breakdown of Distressed vs Par buyer perspectives on restructurings etc. He has a section on Credit bidding and Stalking Horse Bidding, things he knows nothing about. I have a published article on the topic from 2010. These he all took after he say all my decks and stole it all for himself. I urge anyone who thinks this is low down dirty and unacceptable to call him 617-694-7786 or [email protected]
