OFF TOPIC: The commissions are disgusting.. no argument there. $29 minimum for 60 seconds of work or less I believe.

On this note...read an article recently about how busted up the Cdn banks were cause their profits were down... made me want to cry (sniff!). Poor guys....especially the CEO's who won't get that big fat bonus this year.

Wonder what percentage of these profits are on the backs of middle-class workers, small investors, small businesses, etc. struggling to survive in these turbulent times while the banks continue to roll in the dough by the truckload.

Sniff... sorry, but I have to go find a kleenix now.
