I was told the other day about Lehmans banker. Bought a £4m house - £2m cash, £2m loan to be paid back from bonuses - secured by £4m Lehmans shares ("In case they halve").
House repossessed, wife left him with the kids (who he does not see). Being made bankrupt, living in bedroom with his parents.
Should happen to all bankers really.Comment
