According to CNBC’s John Carney; “ Later that evening, at a
tavern along a cobble-stoned street in the financial district, a managing director
at Goldman voiced a similar complaint.
“The London Whale thing has everyone rattled. You don’t know
if some crazy guy in London or Paris or Jakarta is going to cost you the whole
year’s bonus. I’m working my [posterier] off just so that I don’t wind up on
the cutting block,” he said.
In the winter of 2006, the Goldman guy bought a house on
Long Island’s North Fork. His wife and two daughters live there full-time
during the summer. He expected to be able to spend weekends and perhaps two
full weeks there during the summer. He said he’s barely spent any time there at
all.
“I’m not even sure I remember the address,” he said.
