I suspect none of you guys have ever worked on Wall St. Anybody who makes 500k on the street has earned it. Wall St is a meritocracy...if you don't produce - your done. A seniority number is nothing of the kind.

So now tell me why someone is overpaid @ 500k on Wall St?

And before you ask, I did 11 years on the street.

the street.

Is that what you guys called it? Is that to make it sound tougher?

Depends on which line you're referring to. But, I can honestly say, that short of saving someone's life, developing a cure for cancer, or feeding the hungry, there aren't many people out there who deserve 500,000$ "bonuses." To say that people work for them and deserve them is ridiculous. Work? You mean pushing papers and crunching numbers? That's worth half a million in bonuses? Corporate greed and excesses are well documented. If I were working on "the street," I'd take my money and very quickly shut the f*ck up. You can't defend it and you certainly can't beat your chest and act like you deserve it.

You don't think guys like Fred, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, etc. deserve to make more than a half mil per year? I do. I'm sure there are some guys out there that make alot that shouldn't, but the guys leading the way certainly deserve to make alot.

I also think we need to find a way to pay cops, firefighters, and teachers more. Starting salary for a new hire Collierville Police Officer: $17,000.

Those guys, yeah. But then again, they're not working on "the street." These are their companies...they own 'em. I don't think those are the dudes deuce130 is referring to.
