The financial crisis is over now. At least for the bankers. They have the best of years for the past few years. Having received record bonus in the year 2007 before the tumbling of stocks in 2008, which triggered the flow of funds from governments to help them save the free fall. Amazingly, like perfectly crafted plan, the stock market returned to the levels before the crisis towards the end of 2009. The bankers were thrown another lifeline: another chance to bag big money. Once in a lifetime opportunity, some must have felt. Where can you find someone who will give you money to gamble, take back exactly what he or she has lent you and ask no share of your winnings even though they are 2 or 3 times the amount you have lent? There is no way they are going to let go of this chance…
Disappointed? Why should I? I have finally found a certain future for myself. No matter how smart the governments are, they are just politicians. What do they know about making money and controlling the financial systems? It belongs to the exclusive club, only for the most intelligent men. The past 3 years have shown who are made of better materials. Even in the post crisis, the bankers still dare to show hand to the guys in the White House or Westminister. Never once there is a need for them to be on their kneels to beg. Saying sorry in the public costs so much little to the amount of dollars they will get from the bonus. It doesn’t take a financial analyst to see how worthwhile the deal is. Only the fools at the top of the nations think repentance is on the way.
The end is fixed. A sad ending for the bankers is a mission impossible. Sarcastic I may sound here but helpless is the louder voice in me. There is nothing anyone can do to change that. No, it’s not the duty of the God to punish those who take profits for the risks taken. It’s the choice of the governments to pick the jobs of the bankers, rather than the general public to save. Their fears of greater failures have provided the answers to why they made such a choice. And now to save their own jobs, they are thinking of ways to raise taxes (or incomes to the governments) for the majority while keep taxes on sensitive items such as stock markets and currency stimulant.
I have decided not to wait and see anymore. No more disappointments. Now it’s the time to jump on the bandwagon. Join the banks or you will regret for life. Be on the winning side. The line is clear.
