In the scheme of things their salary's aren't that impressive compared to our other clients.

But for their age. I was very impressed.

[HEKT1K]

Never seen Seinfeld so cannot tell what that means

330k is a lot of money!!

Wages or commission/bonus etc? Tony

Interesting thing about Stock Brokers or Investment Bankers is that, the people at the high end up in the game, the big names rolling all the dices and making all the coin, have no idea how the whole thing rolls, but have people in the right places turning the wheels.

I recommend you to watch the new movie Margin Call, gives you a good idea

Kevin Spacey, Paul Bettany, Jeremy Irons, Zachary Quinto, Penn Badgley, Simon Baker, Mary McDonnell, Demi Moore, Stanley Tucci

I just have the PAYG Payment Summary. So that doesn't make a distinction between Base salary and bonuses. As they are all grouped together as one lump sum.

FYI, I never said that i have a girlfriend. Lets get our facts straight and stop putting words in peoples mouths or for the lack of a better word, texts in peoples post..

Is there a mod editing peoples post or am i missing words when i post? There's a conspiracy *insert x-files music*

[alr33x]

Yeh I know be interesting to know from what I understand they would be on a base plus bonuses etc could be wrong of course.

Flynn that applies to basically everything not just investment banking you the the CEO of qantas has a pilots license? Or an engineering degree? They employ the right people to do the job

Read an article years ago about an Australian guy that lives in London (I think it was London), works in something to do with investment banking type stuff.....His salary was around $44m from memory...Think the article was about him going to a different company for a pay rise....

lol just goes to show it's never enough, no matter how much you make...lifestyle adjusts to it and then you want/need more.

It should fit.

f**k that, that's just straight up greed.

If I ever earned/won that kind of cash, I'd never work again. (winning a million isn't enough to pull up stumps these days, sure you can set yourself up but I wouldn't rely on it 100%) but 20+mil and you're set, unless you're a moron.

I'd have businesses, clubs/restaurants etc but I wouldn't personally work in them.

I'd also spend the majority of my money on high end cars that I can only dream of owning...

But this flamin mongrel makes $44m, probably for a few years before the article, yet still works and seeks a pay rise. Makes me sick.

Crack and hookers arent cheap ey

[blah_blah]

I would say if you are on $44 million a year and want a pay rise it wouldn't be so much that you 'need' a pay rise. But more of a fact that the he/she feels like they need a bigger reward for his/her efforts.

I.e. Say he worked worked his arse off for the $44 million one year, and worked 2x as hard the following year he'd be seeking validation for his efforts.

And also so he can tell his fellow millionaires how much more millions he is making more than them

Note: Not defending the guy. $44 million is a lot of money and would set me up for life. Would retire and live like a boss. But some people are just determined to just make more money to climb up the social food chain.
