Re: Wall Street Plans $38 Billion of Bonuses as Shareholders Lose



Yeah, but if you walk with a ton of money (severance in $millions,
bonuses in $ millions, options in $ millions, retirement package in $
millions, other perks in $ millions [think Jack Welch], etc), who cares?

This is only the case if they still have any cash leftover after all
the criminal and civil lawsuits are done.

Many of the folks who had the equivalent of "partner" at Enron, became
"damaged goods" after it went bust. Some ended up losing most of the
cash they made, from criminal and civil lawsuits. As long as there
are deep pockets and sympathetic juries, there's always going to be
lawyers who will try get their hands on it.
