Grant,
It typically costs too much time to manage one of these special situations. We have no time unless he brings something special to the table. Vince Enron North America Corp. From: Grant Masson 04/25/2000 05:59 PM To: Vince J Kaminski/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Subject: Publishable Research...... Vince: The enclosed is from another of the people in the audience of my Kao presentation. I talked to him, and he seemed slightly flaky. However, any research he does would be free. He's looking for direction. I doubt we would want to waste our time and effort on him, but I thought I should send this to you on the off chance that you might have a need for such a guy. (maybe doing some research for Trish?)

Hi Grant, Thanks for writing. I have attached my resume and transcripts for your perusal. As you can see, my background is not finance. I became interested in finance via trading the markets. So my research interests initially revolved around the central concept of trading....pricing, technical type thinking, insider transactions, volume, and such. But with exposure, my interests have grown and I have discovered that I really enjoy economics. Also there are many issues in finance that sound interesting as I am exposed to them. The point is, I am too early in my career to set strict limits on my interests. My goals are to get introduced to research and to new ideas, to associate with good people, and to work on strengthening my weaknesses. I am interested in starting to build a network within the field of finance and especially quantitative finance. Ultimately, I have to prepare myself for independent research in order to succeed in my field. This brings me to my final point. Publications are important for me. Thus I would want to work on topics that Enron would be willing to publish. I would be willing to work on proprietary models, as long as there was a portion of the research that could be written up for publication without jeapordizing the proprietary aspects of the model. Just to let you know. I was not in Dr. Kao's energy class. I took his stochastic processes class. Dr. Kao just mentioned your talk to me as he thought I might be interested in meeting you and learning more about what is being done at Enron. Thanks again. If you need any more info or want anything clarified, just write me.
