Oh, hi. I didn't see you there.
A few weeks ago, it was reported that Erin Callan had officially retired from Wall Street, which was something of a formality, as she’d left her post-Lehman gig at Credit Suisse over a year ago, and we’d heard nary a peep from her since. What was she up to? We had no idea! Was she ensconced in her Upper East side pad, watching trashy daytime TV? Was she out in Greenwich, keying Dick Fuld’s Benz? Was she stepping out of black cars, momentarily pausing for a camera that was no longer there? Had she let herself go? No one knew. Until now. Fortune did a little investigative reporting and it turns out things are going pretty swimmingly for EC. Before we get into what’s been a’ poppin’ for the former Lehman CFO, though, let’s take two to go back. Way back.
Even as a child, Callan was not only talented but also disciplined and self-motivated. Midge Stack-Lennon, who was Callan’s high school gymnastics coach, remembers her as “this adorable, teeny little thing with the strength of a man.” Football players used to troop into the gym to watch Erin practice, and she was happy to perform for them. “She would get up on the bars with hands that were ripped and go through her routine,” Stack-Lennon says. “Her hands would be bleeding. She would think nothing of it.”
So, just file that image away for now while we talk life, post-Dick. First off, Erin’s been living in East Hampton, at the house she bought for $3.9 million in 2005. She’s been seeing firefighter Anthony Montella, who she met in high school at St. Francis Prep. People say the two “seem to be in love,” and that Callan “looks better than ever,” likely a product of 1) getting laid on the reg and 2) the fact that she’s been working on her ass, an effort that has not gone unappreciated,
These days Callan tests her mettle on a much smaller stage. She is now a regular at Ride the Zone, an East Hampton spinning studio. Owner Marion Roman, who is also an instructor there, says that Callan opts for the more intense classes, like Cyko Zone and Kick Ass Zone. “She’s always the best student in the class,” Roman says. “Her form is perfect. She looks so great on the bike. She always has a smile on her face.” When Callan is there, Roman adds, “we always give Erin a shout-out. She inspires other women to do their best and work harder.” That sounds right. Erin Callan always did want to be No. 1.
Wasn’t budhakon making some threats re: this website?
Either I’m real sober today, or Bess is totally wasted.
You know what they say about girls with bloody hands
‘teeny little thing with the strength of a man’…’Her hands would be bleeding. She would think nothing of it’… why is this all so familiar??!?!
also, im praying that someone else caught a glimpse of the monster jean claude van damme was with last night. no joke, kraken in the flesh.
Oh sure, like she’s a celebrity people want to read about….What did she ever do to become such a celebrity?? It just cheapens the genre.

Getting doused by the fire-hose on a regular basis does not equal “love”. Just sayin’.
Being the best student in a spin class > CFO of Lehman Brothers circa 2008
I love this line…..”Was she out in Greenwich, keying Dick Fuld’s Benz” classic Bess
OK, I understand technology can be daunting and all, but Christ!!! It has been several weeks of this crap! Fire the bozos and hire a couple IT interns to turn the site around. Thousands of sites do this all the time. It really isn’t rocket science.
super job on the website’s technical side. Our traffic is up 30%.

Sorry, my Prodigy account isn’t dialing correctly. I was looking for Geocities.
Why is this website so screwed up? Its so screwed up that I find myself visiting Carney’s hack website.

I don’t know why you spoilt Americans cry so loudly. Here in Ouagadougou, we’ve been having unfettered access to Dealbreaker all week. What is this “it failure” you speak of? What is it?
A common liar goes on to lead the good life is how this garbage should be entitled.
Why do I have to consistently refresh my browser every time I want to read these articles? I feel like a Lehman Analyst circa 2008 clicking his ‘send/receive’ in outlook waiting to see his severance that never came.
I remember when she joined Lehman FIG/DCM in summer of ’96.
Everyone thought “who is this bimbo?”….she had a habit of wearing pale green suits with bone-beige pumps; and rambling about trust-prefereds,
Funny how as a geezer in retirement, she is pumping a firefighter-himbo, much like her male colleagues…
Keep it classy….
@ 20 = Kathy Fuld
girlfriend is working it and getting hosed…..if only dick fuld could say the same
@15 DB w tech problems > clusterstock any day of the week.
Please, Bess, no more quotes from “The Room” in picture captions. Sometimes I think that movie is trying to destroy my brain.
I mean, wouldn’t you be blacked out if your company’s website wa out of commission and any work you actually did would get flushed down the toilet?
Interesting business model though–the whole “blog not having a website thing”. Maybe some strategy consultant on here can explain it to me…
@13 twitter.com/lucasvpraag is hilarious. my love for BL just grew ten-fold.
I bet EC yells at the spin instructor with the same gusto that Bette Midler yelled at her basement television set in ‘Ruthless People’.
@25 I wouldn’t blame Bess is she were black out drunk right now either, but if she is, and is still able to post hilarious shit like the above, and break stories that the wsj will rip off in t-12 hours (mark madoff starting his own firm), then she’s even more talented then I thought.
BL I love you, you sneaky little tart.

Women should stick to sucking dick instead of trying to write
@29 Kouwe has been PUBED
“over and year ago”
Women should stick to sucking cock instead of trying to write
Which cosmetic surgery did she have performed?
@35 hmm, it seems to say “gig at Credit Suisse over a year ago”
you should stick to sucking cock instead of trying to read.
EC vs. MW in a tub full of Jell-O and MW isn’t allowed any whips or other devices…who wins?
She has man hands. The hands of a man. She’s like a creature out of Greek Mythology, She was like part woman with a great ass, part horrible beast.
headless@38 MW hands down
Guys guys guys!!
Could this be her new boyf’s facebook page – the guys a fireman aaaannd he has two friends with the last name Callan! Bess, please confirm.

So, hot or not? Looks like he has a son, but then EC brings her own baggage (breaking down in floods of tears, etc)
You are no Anal_yst
@41 “aaaannd he has two friends with the last name Callan! ”
right, but they’re beth and cheryl callan, not erin. so…probably not her guy?
No you knob – she went to school with him, so he probably knows her family. Are you not friends with any of your other half’s family? Or with the family of any of your school friends?
Maybe you don’t have a girlfriend, and maybe you never had any frends… knob.
@44 okay, but why wouldn’t he additionally be friends w EC? and it’s ‘noob’ not ‘knob’.
A fireman and a SAC hedge fund trader died and both went to heaven where they were issued their wings with the warning that if they had even have one bad thought their wings would fall off.
Well, everything went well for some time then one day they passed a very attractive and well put together young lady.
As the fireman turned to watch her pass his wings fell off.
When he bent over to pick them up the SAC hedge fund trader’s wings fell off.
@45 cos she’s not on facebook, peut-être? Why are you being a such hater?
What the hell is a noob? Is that what Americans have instead of dicks?
@46 Recycled but still well done.
46 – can you seriously hate on 30% compound annual returns? Guess so…
I’d def bend her over the kitchen table and investigate how tight and flexible she really is.
This article was 98% boosted from the CNN/Fortune piece. Lame.
@51 uh, if by “boosted” you mean linked to, and given full credit for the reporting, with an added funny take on it (as blogs sometimes do!) then yeah, it was boosted. douchebag.
@35 and @50 that you think it’s ok to attack women in print or otherwise is despicable. Check yourselves into rehab or a prison immediately. Nobody is interested in your misogynist tirades. You are sick and cause a bad name for readers of DB. Visit porn sites, don’t post your sickness here.
Fantastic post admin thank you. I discovered what i used to be trying to find right here. I’ll review whole of posts in this day time
