Marty, The Dot Com Cleanup Guy, Is Not Done Yet

from the keep-'em-failing dept

We've already written two different stories about Marty Pichinson, the "dot com cleanup guy" who made quite a name for himself after the bubble burst in shutting down and liquidating failed dot coms. Now that the economy seems to be picking up, you might think that Marty is looking for a new line of work, but he believes that things couldn't be better in the liquidation business as he's quite sure that there are a large number of "walking dead" companies that aren't going anywhere. In fact, he recently moved from LA to Palo Alto since he expects to be quite busy in Silicon Valley over the next few years. I'd bet he's also smelling the latest dot com bubble, and expecting that it will pop soon.
