haha dibs – funny stuff
BHO, give up already. Wall streeters are going to get paid.
Washington helped Wall street banks steal money from american tax payers. People at Citigroup, Bank of America, etc are going to get paid, with money coming out of tax payers pocket.
It is time for the middle class to stand up to the rich and powerful for their rights and say “enough is enough”
DIBS, your post over on Gothamist was hilarious.
Re: Bonuses
“The firm’s study by no means provides a complete view of bonuses. For example, it did not examine specific dollar amounts for individual employees; instead, it looked at the projected increase to the bonus pool for several different financial businesses.”
More restricted stock (can’t sell yet) than cash and less employees = less $/person.
Will not interrupt the Brooklyn collapse.
***Bid half off peak comps***
DH, is that right? Well, you know we’ll open up a can of whoop ass if they pull that shit over here.
People on Gothamist can be funny – also pretty damn racist at times (see all other threads)
Biff, I just registered with the very same idea in mind.
ditto, you’d get trounced upon for wearing leather shoes, let alone your chaps and gimp mask.
I’m no animal activist but I’m shocked at how many people a cruel and mean to animals. I ran into a neighbor just this morning and she said that her and her husband found a dog in a box in the back alley. Someone through the dog out to freeze after using the dog to breed puppies. They took the dog in and had her examine by a Vet and now she’s apart of the family.
