Constructive trusts... vehicle of the devil!!

Spent the day revising resulting and constructive trusts. sheesh. These things are massively boring, but ya gotta do 'em. Why is it that judges take 25 pages to say that when a trustee puts himself in a position where there would be a conflict between his personal interests and that of the beneficiary under the trust, any profits arising from that action would be held on constructive trust for that beneficiary, even in the absence of dishonesty on the part of the trustee (or any other fiduciary person)? They could've said so in just a sentence. In fact, I just did. :P

Maybe I should be a judge. Then again, maybe the fact that I can say so in only a sentence makes me somewhat under-qualified to be a judge. Hmmm... Which came first, the egg or the chicken?

Why can't Man Utd win again? Why did Rio Ferdinand have to be so unprofessional as to miss a bloody 'piss-in-the-bottle' test? Why oh why am I a Man U supporter, you may ask. Well. Just.
