Banks under pressure to deal with rising employee stress levels - Apr. 2, 2014
Oh boo efffing hoo. Good lord, what a pathetic bunch. As someone who knows and have known several people to work as bankers in NYC, these folks know exactly what they are getting into. They usually start in research and in other entry level positions and see how everything works. These people work 60 hour weeks minimum, but their compensation is enormous...people would be shocked and bottomline, they are addicted to the money. Just like football, you risk major injury but you fully understand this going into that game. And like most football players the grind is too much and most are done by their early 30s. I got no sympathy for these twats.

Re: Wall Street Crime .
Here is another piece of work I won't miss !
http://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/02/bu...t-90.html?_r=0 Charles H. Keating Jr., who went to prison and came to symbolize the $150 billion savings-and-loan crisis a generation ago after fleecing thousands of depositors with regulatory help from a group of United States senators known as the Keating Five, has died. He was 90. The death was confirmed by his son-in-law Gary Hall. No further details were immediately provided. The S. & L. debacle of the 1980s and 90s, when a thousand institutions collapsed in an implosion of reckless investments, may be a distant echo in a nation struggling to recover from economic turmoil. But to millions old enough to have been dragged through the mess, Mr. Keating is remembered, perhaps unjustly, as the pre-eminent villain of an era when depositors, many of them older Americans and naïve investors, lost life savings they had squirreled away in hometown thrifts that they thought were safe.
