Annaline Dinkelmann, who is “a licensed New York City sightseeing guide and trades currencies in the mornings,” includes AIG and Goldman Sachs in her stops, and commentary on William Duer, “Hamilton’s right-hand man at the Treasury, whose speculative activities led to a market crash in 1792″ and Jay Gould “who helped cause a panic on Black Friday: Sept. 24, 1869.” The walk costs $45 and apparently the demand “has been brisk.” Still, there’s always room for competition, and if one of you were to be interested in going up against Dinkelmann, who once had lunch with John Mack and thinks “Vikram Pandit is a strong man who knows how to make money…he’s going to make a lot of money for Citigroup,” here are some free ideas for stops:
The part of the Citi building Jamie D took a piss on after Sandy Weill made the worst decision of his career, the alley on Vanderbilt where Jimmy Cayne would buy his shit, and the massage parlor Alan Greenberg would frequent when he was in town, including an introduction to his favorite girl, who has agreed to discuss the fact that post HJ, she would send McG’s spunk to Goldman Sachs, which would in turn have chemists analyze the samples to determine how elevated his testosterone levels were and if it would influence his policy-making. As jumping off points.

How do you come up with such brilliance?
Wow I hope she shows the bar when I slammed a full bottle of 1987 Pinot noir on some fuck face Financial Analyst back working for Credit Suisse and proceeded to beat him senseless back in 2009 at Delmonico’s. This was after he told me the California firms aren’t real firms and then proceeded to put me in a headlock.
Cool! Walking tours are a lot of fun. I took a New Orleans literary walking tour with Dr. Holditch and learned a lot about Faulkner and Williams and other writers who frequented that city. From the tour I learned that Faulkner like to shoot nuns in the butt with a BB gun and made up fake tours of New Orleans for unwary tourists. He would have been a great Dealbreaker commenter. I think the first 50 pages of “the Reivers” were written while he was drunk. I don’t know if the financial walking tour will be that interesting but it might.
As supplemental income she should rent out advertising space on her forehead.
Sharon Osbourne @ 0:18 seems genuinely interested.
@4 = misogynist or bitter ex-advert guy
Count me in there’s an option to do it as an elephant walk.
My Dearest Bess,
As an avid reader of your wonderful site, I would ask that you become the Mr. Miyagi, to Zachary’s Daniel-San. Your wit and writing prowess knows no bounds, and his is bested by a monkey throwing balls of shit at a type-writer. This made my day. Thank you.
@2:09, I don’t know.. Seriously, I don’t know what you mean
The worst tooth-to-gum ratio I have seen in a while.
@ 4 there’s more space on her gums.
Phew! I should take her for some Sylvia’s…

@9 no comment was made at “2:09,” are you lost?

@10 I laughed….”With gums like that, who needs teeth?”
Bess, we don’t deserve your brilliance.
Bess, the picture is quite enough…@17 sucking up will not get you anywhere…
@18 how do you know?
@18 seconded
@5 haha she really does look like her.
@19 I have been trying and its never happened… I’ve also tried buffoonery, deep sarcasm, effontery….effete gallantry…again, nothing.
@20 I appreciate your wit and intelligence
How does she know to leave MS in 2006? Pure genius.
@ 2 – quality
Best example of making lemonade from life’s lemons.
Only honorable job left on Wall Street.
Most creative use of ‘spunk’ in a financial post.
She forgot about stops at the strip clubs and Asian massage parlors. These are the best places.
@2 California firms AREN’T real firms.

Is JP Morgan the next probe target ? Does Obama wants to reduce the number of investment banks down to zero in US and force them only to do biz overseas ?
