Basic fucking arithmetic done on a scratch pad

Bitching about citigroup's 50 million dollar jet in light of the 45 billion dollar loan to them is like bitching at me because you lent me $4500 and then I went and spent $5 for lunch.

Or you lent me $45,000 (seriously, would you please?) and I went and bought a $50 pair of jeans.

And I'm not just making this point because citigroup holds most of my student loans - although they should probably be yelled at for those too.

Sorry for the potty mouth.

(p.s., yes I know it's about appearances and not finances, but the way the news media has their panties in a twist is a little insulting - i mean, how much did we spend on the Iraq war this week?)
