Does Dick Fuld Dream Of Electric Sheep?

By John Carney


Lehman Brothers likes to say it is “building vision.” We decided to give them a hand and design an advertising campaign for them.

Earlier: “Citi Never Sleeps” ad campaign.

    Nicely played at 6.
    I wonder if Fuld’s strategy is beamed into his head by a pink laser.
    Eitherway, I’m sure he’s struggling to believe that despite apparent reality, the empire never ended.

    I get the feeling that all likely buyers of LEH are more interested in viewing the carnage if NOBODY bids…kind of like wondering what the cutoff is, with respect to a bailout.
    Plus, how is ANY scenario better than BK, from the Dick Fuld perspective? He’s already lost his equity, so at least with a BK, the real estate can get marked out on someone elses dime.
    So he goes through the motions, hoping to finally be shoved into BK. And “core” LEH ends up living on.

    it’s made up of Blade Runner clips. Eyes are how you can tell the “people” from the “cyborgs” in that movie
    Of course it’s all just a metaphor for the human soul…
    Kinda makes you wish you had one doesn’t it?
