HSBC is one of the best run banks in the world, and is the largest in the world right now by assets under management. Investment banking and other high paid wall-street jobs are basically in a death spiral - getting paid huge money for doing fuck all is not going to be around in the coming years. HSBC has had little pain to suffer in this crisis unlike all the American run banks.

Oh and MaryC - like many large companies, HSBC rebranded itself - like IBM and many others - so that the old name means nothing. It is a British run bank, with deep roots in Asia - so your comment about whether they can't decide if they are "Chinese or English" is irrelevant. They already decided years ago.

The sunglasses are tired as hell, when mallrats, skanks in small towns, and old ladies start wearing them - it is time to move on to something that doesn't scream crack whore... What is next, bringing back ugg boots?

Those shades are so fucking tired. When you start seeing teens wearing that style in the middle of nowhere, stick a fork in it - they are done bitches.
