Time's 'The List' issue had this interesting list of slogans from ailing banks in the US:
1. Washington Mutual: "Whoo hoo!"
2. Lehman Brothers: "Where vision gets built"
3. AIG: "The strength to be there"
4. IndyMac: "You can count on us"
5. Capital One: "What's in your wallet?"
6. World Financial Group: "No family left behind"
7. Morgan Stanley: "World wise"
8. Security Pacific Bank: "Smarter Money"
9. Nationwide: "Protection"
10. T. Rowe Price: "Invest with confidence"
These slogans from some of the most hard-hit financial institutions are good for a little schadenfreude, but I'm bringing this up because of the news of what these really kurang ajar big boys on Wall Street are doing.
"Employees were paid more than $18 billion in bonuses last year while their crumbling financial sector received a bailout from taxpayers". This damning piece of news comes after Citigroup was to receive a new corporate jet even after receiving billions for a bailout. A corporate jet. What gall!
So I don't feel guilty at all making fun for their bank slogans. My favourite is probably IndyMac's "You can count on us", which was one of the first casualties of the credit crunch, and the second-largest bank failure in US history.
