Quote from the1:
It's not a case of envy. Anyone who thinks they are doing "God's work" where the aquisition of physical possessions is involved is delusional and extremely narcissistic. I would view someone such as Mother Teresa or doing "God's work." Blankfein's comments are offensive and highly insulting.
Quote from impy barbicane:
really??? Mother Teressa is from a BILLIONAIRE family.
You truly have no clue on what good GS does with the money.
NO MORE SOUR GRAPES FROM THE LOSERS!!
Quote from the1:
A billionaire family? I did not know that. Even if that's true it doesn't change the way she lived her life and how many lives she touched in the process and if that doesn't suffice perhaps we should have a discussion about every other saint that made his or her way into the bible? I'm pretty sure very few of them came from Billionaire backgrounds.
Regardless, Blankfein was not referring to the good that GS does with their money. He was referring to the business deals they make as "God's work." It's so unfortunate for him that he places money above sprituality and the benefit of mankind.
Dude, you sound so much like Asiaprop. You registered this month, two posts, and already you're one of GS's biggest supporters. And I think you should reconsider your definition of what constitutes a loser.
Quote from impy barbicane:
Why is getting rich evil? Do a search for Christopher Hitchens expose on Mother Theressa on Youtube.
Evil under the guise of good is the ultimate evil, capitalistic success is what we all strive for, but once achieved , the winners become EVil in the eyes of the losers.
I am not a supporter of GS, I am simple tired of seeing success maligned on a board that is suppose to be all about success.
If GS breaks laws , they need to be punished, otherwise--- more success to them!

This thread isn't about GS's success. It's about equating GS's success to doing "God's work." Such a comparison is demeaning to those, such as Mother Teresa, who actually did do God's work.
How do you compare owning the market, acquiring your government, eliminating your competition, and generating Billions of dollars that you pay to yourself with something like the Doctors Without Borders program? I have never heard a more pathetic statement in all of my life. It could only come from someone with a Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Look square into that man's eyes and tell me what you see. I imagine this guy gets excited when he looks in the mirror.
