From an article in the NY Times..........

For Dow Kim, 2006 was a very good year. While his salary at Merrill Lynch was $350,000, his total compensation was 100 times that — $35 million.

The difference between the two amounts was his bonus, a rich reward for the robust earnings made by the traders he oversaw in Merrill’s mortgage business.

Mr. Kim’s colleagues, not only at his level, but far down the ranks, also pocketed large paychecks. In all, Merrill handed out $5 billion to $6 billion in bonuses that year. A 20-something analyst with a base salary of $130,000 collected a bonus of $250,000. And a 30-something trader with a $180,000 salary got $5 million.

Those are not even CEO'S....

This is from a dec 07 CNN article......

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Goldman Sachs Chairman and CEO Lloyd Blankfein will take home nearly $68 million in restricted stock, options and cash, making it the largest bonus ever given to a Wall Street CEO.

Blankfein was awarded $26.8 million in cash and $41.1 million in restricted stock and stock options, according to a company filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Friday.

Goldman Sachs reported a 2.2 BILLION dollar loss this year!!!  Nearly 1/4 of that went to this FUCKS bonuses last year!!  Not all CEO'S are pieces of shit Freeze but this clown and those that hang with him on Wall Street and those Running the Auto Industry ARE.  Unfortunatly its these industries that is part of the Fucking of America right now.  I wanted to toss my cookies when those clowns from the "BIG 3" all flew to DC in individual private JETS to ask congress for BAIL OUT MONEY.......
