womenofwallstreet80s.jpgWhen crises of any sort strike, we always think the best way to tackle the problem is for clothes to come off. The good people of Playboy feel exactly the same way. Following the success of special Hurricane Katrina, Bay of Pigs, and Bubonic Plague issues, the magazine has announced that it looking for ladies who work (or worked) in the financial services industry to pose for an upcoming feature in the February edition called, “Women of Wall Street.” The editors apparently got the idea following “the onset of the financial crisis, which has vaporized fortunes and left Wall Street reeling.”
Getting down to business, the spank rag says it is “especially interested in those with more senior job experience.” Several names come to mind. Compensation will be determined by how many women apply, though as photo editor Gary Cole wisely noted, “Whether you offer them $500 or $1,000 or $2,000 a piece, that’s probably not going to change anybody’s mind.”
Bonus: we just so happen to have the copy of the “Women of Wall Street” issue from the 80s pictured above, which a reader sent over probably a year ago, but someone wouldn’t let us post. Provided we can locate it, that shit’s going up today.

    “Hi, Heff? It’s Erin Callan here…”

  6. Posted by guest | October 2, 2008 at 9:44 AM

    @1…that didn’t take long based on this post!
    Bess – we all expect you to submit your photo for consideration by Heff. GET ON IT!

    Too fake, didn’t jerk.

    NSFW btw…
    Bess, how come no news on hedge funds blowing up..

  10. Posted by guest | October 2, 2008 at 9:49 AM

    c’mon Bess, do it for the lunch fund… or kids w/cancer… or traders with boners

  11. Posted by guest | October 2, 2008 at 9:49 AM

    Who wouldn’t let you post? Carney? Elizabeth?
    Bess – you run this shit now – don’t let anybody tell you otherwise! We read because of you – have at it.
    It’s Avon Barksdale and Marlo Stanfield – Barksdale is gone. You Marlo now.

    I am sending in my application immediately. If they like me, I will give Dealbreaker a behind the scene report.

  13. Posted by guest | October 2, 2008 at 9:51 AM

    @10- elizabeth’s been gone for over a yr, so it’s definitely carney.

  14. Posted by guest | October 2, 2008 at 9:53 AM

    @13…word. Must’ve been Carney’s lawyerly affectations.

  15. Posted by guest | October 2, 2008 at 9:54 AM

    @11
    Who is Omar then?

  17. Posted by guest | October 2, 2008 at 9:56 AM

    Perhaps Carney knows how vigilant Hef’s lawyers are. You’ll get a cease-and-desist letter before the day is out. Now, WHY Carney would know this, that’s up to you to decide.
    Anyway, I bet he took it with him when he left.

  18. Posted by guest | October 2, 2008 at 9:56 AM

    Erin Burnett should pose!!!

  19. Posted by guest | October 2, 2008 at 9:57 AM

    Dare you to post it, but bet you don’t get half as much traffic as you did from either Tanner or Phelps. Apparently seeing a buff boy gets the typical competitive WS boy growling with jealousy and typing fast. GAnalYst

    O-Cubed perhaps…I can just see him saying this to GS and GE…
    “I’ll do what I can to help y’all. But, the game’s out there, and it’s play or get played. That simple.

  22. Posted by guest | October 2, 2008 at 10:01 AM

    Listen, losers lay off the sexual harrassment. If it wasn’t for Bess we would be crying instead of laughing our way through this meltdown. Oh and if you had any google skills at all, you probably would have already found her picture.
    Sincerely,
    Mr. I scooped Bloomberg on the Rose City Archery tax break.
    This is awesome. I posted a comment on the bailout bill to the Dealbreaker blog and I mentioned the wooden arrow tax break and then I mentioned how Rose City Archery would benefit. (I googled wooden arrows and they were the first to come up). Now Bloomberg is reporting the same story.

    @8 – Don’t make “boom goes the dynamite” the next sham wow or mayo.
    BTW, that Aussie sheila who filled in for Erin Burnett when she was on vacation would be the hot ticket.

    The picture of the redhead is from Superman returns.
    Great job on the arrow play. I boxed it.

  37. Posted by guest | October 2, 2008 at 10:20 AM

    @22…then post the link of Bess’ picture – otherwise fuck off. It’s DB lore that it doesn’t exist.
    AND DON’T FUCKING POST A LINK TO THAT STUPID ASS PICTURE OF KATE BOSWORTH.

    Bess’s friend Tara is cute. I’d consider putting my career on hold for 40 – 45 minutes/seconds to breed with her.
