Will strippers accept “shares at risk”? How will I make it rain now?

I am setting up a fund to buy these restricted shares.
I am seeking investors. Return is annualized at 6%. As managing partner, I will pay myself all the equity gains. That is all.

I guess you can always strip down naked and roll around in your pile of risk-contingent shares.

@39 You’re correct, of course. No argument. Whoever you are, you seem like one of the few on this board with some fucking humility. It’s just fucking heartbreaking, the place we’ve been brought to. This entire fucking social order has fallen into the reality trap of an obsessive-compulsive. Essentially, criminal behavior, that most can only just barely comprehend as a problem in the economic scheme, underlies every goddamn facet of our affairs. Good luck to you. To all of us.

@38, that’s just a little too honest.
Wall street doesn’t work without the pyrimad scheme / dream. Stop messing with the cogs

First, I never said that I make that. Simply stating that those who do, and there are very very few of them to begin with, are not retiring and buying super yachts and plotting further ruin on the economy. Most on the Street are just putting in the daily grind, and getting punished for the extreme actions of a few.

Admit it, the only reason you work in this industry is for a bonus. The rest of the time you spend whinging. And likely you will never make that 1MM gift, but still you are worked until you are near death. You dumb bastards are working on the fucking Amistad, don’t you realize that? You must hate yourselves. No wonder you who are not quite thirty seek refuge in beer after beer at the end of your day, talking up cooze you will never bed, and have forty inch waistlines and turkey necks. Yeah, I’m talking to you, Sparky. I’ve seen you. Seen you all. Jesus fuck, you must hate yourselves.

@29 if you dont like paying such high taxes why did you vote for obama? and in NYC at 1M you pay actually 53% in taxes over all. So i hope you make good use of the public schools and all those wonderful city services cause you are paying for them!

@29: Hopefully, you will lose your job and get cancer. Then you will realize how lucky you were. Until then, stop whining.

@29/32
By the same token, @29 should be able to move out of Harlem, finally. Lock down a nice little i/o, negative amortizing $5mm note and you’re livin the dream, baby.
C’mon, next years bonus will be bigger anyway. I guarantee it.

@29 come on dude, it’s obviously all Wall Streets fault, and you don’t deserve a bonus that big. Don’t you remember holding that gun to my head and forcing me to buy a $1mm house with my 80k a year combined household income? You can’t be allowed to make money anymore.
