[skelly22]

I'm sure you've all gotten this already, but....



Back in 1929 Financial Crash it was said that some Wall Street Stockbrokers and Bankers JUMPED from their office windows and committed suicide when confronted with the news of their firms and clients financial ruin . . many people were said to almost feel a little sorry for them . . . . . .


In 2008 the attitude has changed somewhat:

Yeah we didn't see anyone complaining when the value of their house doubled in ten years or less, despite them doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to earn that... now because things are a bit tough anyone that works anywhere near a bank, including the window cleaners, is the spawn of Satan.
