Not that it's a contest but...

Blankfein’s total compensation package of $31 million was up from $29 million a year earlier. It topped the $22.5 million for Morgan Stanley CEO James Gorman, 56, and the $20 million given to JPMorgan Chase & Co. CEO Jamie Dimon, 59. Bank of America Corp. CEO Brian T. Moynihan, 55, and Citigroup Inc.’s Michael Corbat, 54, each got $13 million.

If you're unhappy about your bonus this year, perhaps it'll make you feel less alone to know Lloyd Blankfein's dropped, too. (To $23 million.)

Stephen Schwarzman's performance review must have gone really well.

The board has decided Corbat did a 10 percent shittier job last year than in 2013.

Banking interns in Europe and some lucky ones in the U.S. are getting paaaaid (more money than they expected).

Legal charges shmegal charges.

Raises for everyone! (Generally speaking.)

Bonuses paid in '08 that were of the look-but-don't-touch variety were turned into real live ones that you can buy things with last year. Two billion dollars worth of live ones.
