According to the nytimes.com,
“Despite billions upon billions of dollars in losses in the financial industry, there still appear to be some people on Wall Street who are optimistic about their year-end bonuses.
An online survey conducted last month by eFinancialCareers.com, a career Web site, found that more than a third of the 1,400 people who responded said they expected to receive larger bonuses this year than they did last year. A remarkable 10 percent thought their bonuses might rise 33 percent or more.”
Try not to think about this when you are opening your fourth quarter financial statements. Better yet, take note of any firms that do give out bonuses. If one of those firms are someone you do business with, take your business elsewhere and tell them why.
