What is this “bonus” thing they speak of? It sounds like their company just gives them money for no reason. I don’t understand it.

Beats me but maybe Toddster can help. Perhaps he can tell just how Wall Street companies make so much money and who is really getting hosed.

A lot of these guys are only making $500,000 or $750,000 a year. The real money — the $2 million or or $3 million — is in the bonus, which is (ideally) based on performance.
