Jamie Dinan is the CEO...

...and Managing Partner of York Capital, a hedge fund with $12 billion under management. He was just interviewed on CNBC; seems like a nice enough man.

But how often do you suppose he gets confused with Jamie Dimon, the CEO and chairman of JPMorgan Chase?

"Excuse me, sir, a Mr. Jamie Dinan is on the phone..."

"Jamie Dimon? Put him through right away!"

"No, no, no. Not Jamie Dimon; Jamie Dinan."

"Who?"

"A Mr. Dinan. Jamie Dinan."

"Oh. Uh, tell him I'm in a meeting or something..."
