Congratulations Alan Greenspan! The former fed chair, who people are hoping will die soon, has won the Dynamite Prize in Economics, which is basically what the Razzie Awards are to the Oscars. Greenspan was awarded the honor as the economist most responsible for blowing up the global economy.

American Banker has named Jamie Dimon the Banker of the Year, for obvious reasons. They include: running a bank that didn’t have its ass handed to it, being Obama’s favorite, allowing employees to celebrate the birth of Christ/awkwardly grope each other, general hotness, and not being the guy running the firm where they fertilize eggs in the basement for the sole purpose of destroying the embryos* (ixnay on the aldybay). Normally, we would be happy about any honor bestowed on the boy-toy CEO this one we cannot get behind, given that last year’s recipient was Ken Lewis, who put a curse on the thing. So thank you, AB, but no thanks. We’re good here. You can have this one back.
