http://www.boston.com/jobs/news/jobdoc/2009/01/unemployment_should_i_file.html This post is kinda cruel because the people involved are clearly not Wall Street bankers, but they are cut from the same cloth. Wonderful advice would'nt you say?
I agree. Anyone with half a brain in this business knows desks get closed and teams get sacked. I mean it was only happening back in 2000 - 2003 for gods sake. It's one of the reasons you get paid well

But as provisioning and charge-offs rise along with unemployment, the people up stream will feel the hits too. Time to say bye-bye to the people still left in the structured finance group!

Day by day, it looks more and more like the United States of Argentina. This is so pathetic because it is not as if these people are broke or even poor.
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/03/business/03bankers.html?_r=1&hp=&pagewanted=all To all the people who think that I have something against bankers, you are wrong. Following his stint as a Vice President at Bear Stearns, Stephen Chen chooses to sell "sandals made by Cambodian villagers out of discarded rubber tires". It would appear to me that his relatives in the Bronx who run restaurants and laundromats have a better head on their shoulders than he does. And yet it is people like Stephen Chen who act as the invisible hand guiding the global economy. What does Stephen Chen hope to do? Save these poor Cambodian villages and win back his lost social acclaim? The best and brightest are now lost in limbo space. They do not know what to do, they do not know where to go. In an instant the world changed and they were left behind.
