"as long as she's in the top 50 she'll still be mrs. layfield"

@1
Because the staff at Fortune ("the most powerful magazine in business" -- is she on crack?) is incompetent.
Also: "I've never taken my husband's name. please don't tell my husband this" huh? Is he retarded and has never noticed that she has not been using his name?

keep flaming her boys and girls but she understands the game better than any person on this board.
her analysis has been stone cold right.
while everyone else mostly held their pee pee's
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:04PM
@4-- you watched the video. does he sound like he's not retarded?
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:05PM
I absolutely can not stand that broad
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:06PM
@8
the comments here are not about her anal-ysis, but about this video -- analysis aside she is a retard (just look who she's married!)
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:07PM
She is at Oppenheimer. CIBC World Markets (that's what they like to call themselves) sold Oppenheimer for something like $10 after several astute moves in CDO's. Guess they weren't listening to her.

@8
And what's up with your "pee pee"? You f**king wuss
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:11PM
@8 If she is so brilliant why is she at Oppenheimer lol

hi number 13,
my cock is really skinny, but at least it's short.

Spoken like a true Meredith
Excellent analysis
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:20PM
@AJ-- uh, he sounds legitimately retarded.

#15 must be Whitney herself
who else would write such stupidity

You cant stand that broad because you are likely a long-only permabull. you can't handle the truth!

that guys cawk is bigger than 90% of the "men" on this blog.
and i mean the entire man.
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:31PM
@14: so dead on!
All CIBC-ers are brain-dead rejects of society. And all Oppenheimers are rejects of CIBC!
Mrs. Layfield started making all those citi comments when she was afraid of getting canned (CIBC was thinking of shutting down Oppenheimer). It was a huge gamble on her part, not brilliance. She just had nothing to lose at that point.
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:35PM
hi # 27,
you got the whole world figured out, huh?
lol
meridith whitney could probably negotiate a pay package for more than you'll make in your whole life at a "real" firm like yours just to shut her up.
lol

@26: Meridith, go suck his HUGE CAWK so you can be quiet for a minute

hi # 30,
i don't even know how to spell cawk and you want me to spell her name right?
lol @ "spelling"
why don't you just break out the hitler internet card and get it over with?
loser.
lol
Posted by BSD , Aug 07, 2008 12:41PM
@4 et.al.,
Fortune is about on par with Business Week so far as power and respect goes, but it's pretty clear that Meredith is pandering just because she's so happy to do a photo shoot and live out her secret fantasy of being on America's Next Top Plus-Sized Model, whereas her husband, I imagine, is just portraying his WWE "persona", which appears to be an arrogant Beverly Hillbilly, with his comments.
Meredith's quip about not taking her husband's name though was clearly a retort to him calling her Mrs. Layfield.
#27 may be closer to the truth than everyone who thinks Whitney is brilliant. I'm holding my opinion until the financials start recovering to see if she's a no-trick pony who just made a gutsy call and is intend on sticking to it no matter what the markets say.
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:41PM
hi # 33
Get off here you annoying little pisser
lol
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:41PM
@27, if that's true, why is she ranked #2 in the 2007 rankings when financials were still positive?
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:42PM
hi 35,
are you english?
if not, then you're a total zero for using brit slang.
wanker lol
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:43PM
hi 33 you are really funny. lol lol lol lol lol lol.
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:43PM
What's up with all of the lol's here? I don't get what's so funny.
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:47PM
hi 39,
what's funny is witnessing the public jealously of a bunch of delusional self described alpha dogs getting pwned by some chick married to a wrestler.
they can't stand that she's smarter than them.
and it's fucking funny.
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 12:50PM
hi 40,
yeah, you called it.
Not.
Just watch the video and see the retards in their natural state with no corporate publicity manager hanging over.

when did DB let youtube commenters on here...this shit is awful
Posted by Bess Levin , Aug 07, 2008 1:10PM
@44 as you can obviously infer, they all come from a single person who's one 'lol' and 'meridith' away from getting banned.
Posted by HAM05 , Aug 07, 2008 1:10PM
wow 44 took the words right out of my mouth
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 1:12PM
hi 44,
would you prefer engaging in some highbrow discussion regarding this topic?
lol
please shine your knowledge and wisdom upon me. lol
i'm waiting.
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 1:17PM
hi bess levin,
what sort of comments should i be making regarding this topic?
i'm sorry if i stepped out of line.
you reap what you sow.
and you sow a lot of snarky comments and prose.
no?
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 1:19PM
btw bess,
are you in any way related to john levin?
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 1:21PM
@ Ms.45,
In the spirit of Juan Carnivore, i think it a shame to banish anyone from the comment section, including all the mayo stuff, foot fetishes, and the youtube commenters. Let the free markets of DB sort themselves out; more freedom and less regulation... Thanks..
@42,
Hilarious!!!
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 1:23PM
42/50 (obviously same person). no. morons who ruin threads need to be dealt with.
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 1:26PM
I've never seen so many "lol's" on here before. This is pathetic. I wouldn't let my maid's kids read this.

all the Hi @ blah blah and LOL?!!!! Most annoying comment section ever. Bess, pull the trigger on this loser.
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 1:48PM
I wonder if Abbey Joseph Cohen didn't see what Meredith saw? Maybe she did.
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 2:44PM
@40 -
#39 here. I was being sarcastic. None of the comments were even remotely funny, so there was no need for all of the "laughter" (I am ABSOLUTELY NOT writing those three letters, after what I've witnessed here today).
Posted by guest , Aug 07, 2008 2:48PM
holy crap bess levin was serious.
she banned me! lol
lol really pisses serious people who make snarky comments about a wrestler off. strange.
I have tor/privoxy so this could get stupid which I want no part of.
sorry bess levin. for real.
i was just playing along.
lets get back to the serious business of dealbreaker making fun of firms like MER for limiting employees ability to post on dealbreaker.
Huh?

Posted by guest , Aug 08, 2008 5:41AM
Jesus Fucking Christ, i know everyone is on holidays, but wtf is happening to this board of late? Its fucking embarrassing. Its like a group of 1st year analysts w/ too much sugar.
Posted by guest , Aug 08, 2008 8:20AM
the only person here who is a genius is Bud Lowenthal, who probably pays Whitney half of what she'd make somewhere else, just because he took an option on her when noone else wanted her, a couple years back...BL is the real winner here.
