Administrators & liquidators hate jobs where they don't get paid. This is the only way of recovering their exorbitant fees.
The only assets available for sale are other peoples.

Good point Mick. The Fed. Govt's attitude is don't curtail entrepreneurs just cos they had a bit of bad luck. Ha Ha!
The pollies have taken the view that dealing with crooks is just a part of doing business. Caveat Emptor & all that crap.
There's a 5 year ban available for shonky directors, but the AAT usually let's 'em off.
Yep, its a joke.
