CORRECTION: In this episode Trent mentions Doug Hajek’s involvement with Citibank’s decision to move to South Dakota. Trent inadvertently referred to Doug as attorney for Citibank. While Doug is a respected banking attorney, he did not represent Citibank at the time. He was, however, heavily involved in crafting the legislation that eliminated usury in South Dakota.
