The problem specific to finance is many of these folks had to get bailed out in 2008. If they didn't, their wealth would have gone to 0. (So would many of ours as collateral damage, which is why the bailout did happen.) Just 1 year later they paid themselves enormously offensive amounts of cash. This is why people find the humor so painful. Don't laugh at the sucker who had to bail you out. The one relevant point, which you kind of get to, is that this was meant to be private conversation amongst friends. |
