1. 'This guy needs to grow up!'.
2. 'Just stop moaning and go out a try to get another job. Loser!'.
3. 'I find it hilarious that he criticises the Chief Risk Officer, then doesn't reduce his own risks by saving for that 'rainy day'!'.
4. 'It seems to me it's time you left the markets anyway, as you are clearly losing touch with reality. You might also want to tell your wife that if she wants a new 4 x 4, she should go out and get a job!'.
5. 'Down on your uppers and yet you still refer to those less fortunate than you as 'trailer-trash'. You could also do with a lesson in humility'.
6. I've been through this experience more than once. The truth is that, even with mostly closely-knit family, often loved ones just don't understand'.
7. 'I feel for the person who wrote that piece. Where else but the financial markets can you get laid off and sound off about your frustrations and then get coated with a load of 20 / 20 hindsight ? ( You're stupid, you're a loser, your wife is a money-grabber, you need to grow up, etc). If this person wasn't on the edge before, he sure is now. In the end, though, he'll get a job - you guys who commented will always be assholes!'.
Laid Off - And Mad As H.ll!
