Meredith Whitney’s Good-Bye

By Bess Levin

Really? This is all we get? Does anyone else feel used?

To The Oppenheimer Team,

Today will be my last day at the firm, and I wanted to extend a sincere thank you to you all for all of your great help. I feel fortunate to have been apart of such a nice culture. Thank you.
My new contact information is [redacted].
All my best,
Meredith

    What the [redacted] is up with that?
    Quite the economy with words. Any chance that she’s just been a front (pun intended) for Steve Eisman all this time?

    She didn’t even have the decency to let her fellow bitches know that all ball-gags could now be removed and discarded? Icy-hot.

    Below is John Cena performing the F-U on Kurt Angel. Bess use to have a “thing” for Cena, so I kicked his ass. Then I kicked Chuck Norris’ ass just for the fuck of it. You’re probably saying, “SPODE has some mad skills.” Damn right bitches, I’m a Bad Ass Motherfucker Times Seven -BAMFX7-

    this has GOTTA be the bottom in financial stocks. This chick going out on her own is the perfect signal.

    @15 – Go ahead, then, and back up the truck. Just make sure to hedge your longs with a couple metric ass-tons of ball gags. Ya never know …

    Sje was hated at Oppenheimer , and no one cares about her A-Rod – like support of her teammates

    What’s wrong?
    You can kiss her cold ass when she exits the front door.

    I’m sure that Merry gave her goodbyes personally with a hug and this was the statement she knew would be leaked and published by her fans.
    That woman has a mind like a steel trap. What better time to open a firm, the street is flush with talent longing for a challenge.

    I guess she isn’t into foreplay

    she was universally despised at the firm and in for a rude awakening at her own shop. Although she does enjoy getting pile drived every night by a steroid freak.

    There’s never been a better time to start a minority-owned business on Wall Street… All the best, Chubby!
