    A silly graph titled “Prison Time by Moolah Stolen”. It depicts a graph which almost immediately shoots from 0 to 50 years, climbs to 165 years at $300,000 and then immediately drops to 5 years at $1,000,000 and 0 years at $2,000,000

    Skilling got 24 years which was reduced to 14 in 2013. Lay was convicted of crimes that have a max sentence of 45 years, but died before sentencing.

    I like the part where it’s like a zillion times more illegal than trying to overthrow democracy. The USA “justice system” is a joke.

      Most of the January 6th people seemed to get appropriate sentences for their involvement.

  Points for creativity, I guess? I’m pretty sure a Goldman Sachs analyst can figure out how to do it properly, though…

    Fun fact, personal cell phones on the trading floor arnt allowed, to avoid unlogged comms by traders.

      Aren’t trading floors mostly empty these days since trading is much more automated?

  Ironically, Viggiano and his team from the University of Tampa won a 2018 ethics competition

  Best part of the article.
