May 27, 2009 By Professor Arielle Saiber

hell-in-crisis-2009

“Think things are grim for Wall Streeters in the here and now? Envision the scene in hell, where the Devil is talking bonus cuts, the Pit of Remorse is packed with frustrated financiers, and trophy wives are weeping over the eternal torment of their broke husbands’ company. Related: A gallery of Edward Sorel’s rogues.”    –Edward Sorel and Richard Lingeman, Vanity Fair, June 2009
