Presented Without Comment: Ken Feinberg

By

“I wouldn’t begin to say how much money you should make on Wall Street,” Mr. Feinberg said in an interview last week, as he prepared to slash pay for the top 25 earners at seven firms that received significant government aid. “I’ve never worked on Wall Street. I don’t claim to know the ethos of Wall Street.”

      However, Feinberg will follow up with these 25 individuals on something he is very familiar with the ethos of: circle jerking and midnight elephant walks.

      Greg – you’ve discovered your niche! All your posts should be presented without comment. Ideally without your by-line or better still without any actual involvement on your part. Kudos!

      Engineering salaries are down about 40% from a few years ago. They should make more than anyone does on Wall St, IMO….
