One point: Jake is clearly trying to portray himself as the self-made, hard-working, humble American. In my opinion, he would've been better off not publishing this article in the NY Times. From my point of view, it seems he is searching for the spotlight by providing his letter of resignation to the Times. A good read for sure, but I am forced to consider this when I dig deep down in my stomach to find pity for him.

He probably wrote this letter in response to all the death threats and irate callers AIG FP is getting. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/03...
