high level Monopoly
Posted by admin on January 24th, 2010
Just read a comment on a blog from Tina, who wrote “Loan modification for them is a game . . . They not going to help anyone . . . ”
Tina hit the nail on the head. Playing with money on the levels of Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo, Chase, etc. IS a game . . . a game of money with high stakes.
A Vanity Fair article on Goldman Sachs notes that these gentlemen look with scorn on anyone with a tan, as though they are slackers, and pride themselves on “how hard they work.” Jerks. No working mothers have tans . . . they don’t have time. No one in high-tech has a tan. The only people with tans are lifeguards and low-paid farm workers ’cause they actually have to be in the sun. (Oh, and one of the senior executives of Wells Fargo, but that’s cause he lives in California and HAS to have a tan . . . his tan, of course, is fake ’cause he doesn’t actually take time to be in the sun — he could, if he played tennis or golfed with banker buddies. Oh, and his fake tan is a dreadful orange color, but at least it takes attention away from his gel-styled, probably dyed hair.)
Goldman Sachs’ measurements for hard work are just plain old boys’ school silly. They ARE just playing. The average middle-income family works as hard as any of them, yet these non-tan (or the aforementioned fake tan)bankers assume they are impressing someone with these stupid games. They think they deserve bonuses for their tanless incompetency.
I’ve spent more than a year seeking modification. I have a 3-month forbearance with no agreement beyond that to do anything. They eMailed me that they do NOT know who holds the note . . .
What DO these bankers do with their $500,000+ salaries? Drink a lot to forget how much they screw people all day long? I SO would love to talk with their wives to see what life is like in that crooked lane? What do they tell themselves about their husbands cheap views of everyone else on this planet.
I said it before and I’ll say it again, dealing with cancer treatments in 2008 was easier than dealing with Wells Fargo in 2009. I knew what to expect with cancer. The doctors were quite clear. Wells on the other hand . . . Well who knows!
