Hiring prostitutes to win business.
I like that people are genuinely shocked about this story. I can only assume they've never had any purchasing or selling position in a business.

John Oliver had a rant about financial advisers and the like last night.
Mainly because they told people to make trades in the best interests of the broker to rack up those sweet, sweet fees.The allegations came at the start of a legal claim by the Libyan Investment Authority for $1.2bn (£846m) from the investment bank. Lawyers for the LIA are claiming for losses on nine trades that Goldman Sachs executed for the fund between January and April 2008.
The LIA lost almost all its investment through the trades – one of which was the largest that the bank had undertaken in a single stock – while Goldman Sachs generated “eyewatering” profits of over more than $200m from the trades, Roger Masefield, a QC for LIA, said.
