RE: CCIE SP: Dual CCIE

I meant

1. Goldman Sachs
2. JPM Chase
3. Citi
4. Morgan Stanley
5. Blackrock (blacktarp)
6. Barclays (Lehman)

Did you see the money these firms just announced they set aside for bonuses? RECORD YEAR
Like 2008 never happened.

Their counterparties and Alternative investment firms are even more generous.

I agree with Joseph.

The financial firms don't pay that well to begin with compared to others in
General.

Remember, I would not call, State Farm, University of Michigan, Bank of
America, Thompson Reuters or the State of Washington Service Providers. Yet
they ALL run one or more Applications of MPLS. I can go on and on.
