First!
Too goldman, didn’t read
Good for them. Cannot fault anyone for wanting to be a partner in GS. Speaking of fault, did anyone see the Laker/Trailblazers game last night?
(Asian Partners)/(White Partners)
@3. What is this Laker/Trailblazer game you speak? What sport is this?
so it seems that pretty much the whole fucking company is a partner. Big fucking deal. Fuck these douchebag elitist prix. Their day in the sun is overJohnny Over!!!!!
Unfortunately, we needed the government to keep us from failing, so you won’t be getting a bonus this year.

@7- learn how to use a search function
at #7 oh by the way GS earmarked 13B for bonuses.Remember they called for 150 dollar crude? Well they sold all the way up. MAZEL TOV !!!
@ 4 Most of these “partners” at GS didn’t graduate from college 5 years ago, or even 20. What was the Asian / White analyst ratio in the 80s?
How can they be called partners when this is a public company and now a bank holding company?
Did anyone tell them that they are not partnership anymore and that title is a total misnomer otherwise.
Dumb asses.
@ 6
Jealous/ignorant much?
at 13 zero jealousy just a believer in justice,Karma and the American way. By the way you’re name is giving assholes the world over a bad rap.
@12: I was wondering that too. I guess I’m a partner in IBM and any other company I own stock in. Oh, and hey, buy 100 shares of GS and theoretically you, too, are a partner!
What must it feel like to not be on that list since it seems like everyone is on it?
Question: former Lehmanite here, and its been a lonely October (to say the least). Does it make me gay if I cum at the same time as the guy in the porno?
at #17 ask ANAL_YST.
@17…Bess should have an opinion she is afterall the DB expert on Peter North.

Can we stop with this conspiracy theory nonsense that the goldman trading desk was somehow in cahoots with the energy analysts to pump and dump everyone else with their bullish crude calls? Although I don’t know for certain, I’d imagine the guys on the energy desk pay as much attention to the analysts as everyone else should: ZERO.
who really thinx that GS is the begin all and end all of the world. They sold out. They’re no better than all the co.’s they’ve downgraded and shorted. GOOD RIDDANCE.
Congratulations! You have been promoted to First Mate of the HMS Titanic. Now grab a bucket.
17-
If the guy is cumming all over another dude, you’re probably gay. If its on a chick, probably not.
there is no bonus this yr for the industry right? so these guys get paid nothing?
20, don’t be so gullible.you sound like a fool. Conspiracy theory. I’d say not.
BO is trashing wall street in his rally this morning.
this is where fun comes to die
Okay, then, which of you is single? Looking?
25-
I’m not the one listening (and especially not acting on) the market predictions of others. Who is the gullible fool?
Is this like the Forbes Billionaire List where the only single guy is inbred and cross-eyed? Because if so, this list is of no use to me.
Is partner now equivalent to head teller?
Fuck the new partners….I want to know happened with those cripples they went recruiting in Chicago last week – any bites at the GS booth?
And where is the layoff list….I imagine it is much much longer these days!
Hey Partner!
Maybe you can get in on the 67 shares of MYR group that Goldman sold for $10.50 a share on 10/22!

Any way we can see the list of those who didn’t make partner?
I bet there’s some sad souls at GS right now…
I count 95 partners and 3,200 out of a job

Just curious – how many Hebe vs. Goy names on that Partner list?
#34
Love it when these Bugger Bears keep illegally tampering with SEC filings..The first $10.00 trade wasn’t on the file an hour ago.
A Goldman filing for ‘Limelight’ was also scotched between yesterday and today.
You AINT real PARTNERS
I heard all the new partners get to share 2 to an office when they move out to Citi center in Queens. Everyone else will be moved to Jersey.
Broad Street will become as special depository/museum of level 3 assets in bearer form.
#37
looks to be about 50% hebe, you know, right in line with the overall population. where are the afro-american names? thought GS was heavy on democrats
Hey look – at least one Lehman can celebrate this year (David A.)
Congrats to all those who made it to this prestigious level. Too bad so many don’t realize how much work and effort is involved both in education and experience to achieve something like this.
