Bankers, The New Sex Symbols
« on: December 25, 2007, 01:33 AM »

I just want to ask if its just me or are other people watching our bankers, i mean the way they live, dress sense, fat salaries, general attitude,etc everything they do now is flambouyant. Flashy cars, clothes, hairdos,cribs etc. When i mean bankers i mean all of them including their Managing Directors and all. Are bankers the highest paid workers today?Huh why are they so loud? i thought a banker is meant to be conservative (like they really are abroad), afterall you are dealing with other people's cash not yours. The oil workers i think are the richest today in terms of salary, why are they not loud like the bankers? you turn on the tv, there must always be something about a bank or its managing director. We do not even get to know the managing directors of banks abroad, i asked some friends who have lived in the UK and USA for years about the managing Directors of some banks, they didnt know,why is ours different? a bank MD is like a Governor of a state, a primary one pupil knows the managing director of Zenith Bank, Oceanic,etc

This was not the case years ago, if i remember correctly, bankers were old school people, they were not highly placed socially, they were conservative, but today the reverse is the case, they see themselves as SEX SYMBOLS (with very bad/non-chalant attitude to customers whose money pays their salaries, i must add). Most of the brand new cars you see today in lagos are owned by Banks and Bankers respectively. What is really going on? they make so much profit yet their dividends are peanuts, thats because they have used up all the cash to buy flashy cars and all.

Personally i think this should be checked, The Banking industry is not the only industry in Nigeria, they should work more on improving their skeletal services rather than posing and flashing expensive items around town. Advertisement  on radio and tv should be minimized, its a corporate institution not a deparmental store.

hey Wink Smiley why the hatered, you have some point  but i feel every body has a right to enjoy life if they have the resources the only dishearten thing there is that most of this things are bought on loan with high interest rate on them. Any way it's  their business.

@ poster

you  do have a point but the suprising thing is that they are not so well paid.I think what they are trying to do is to create an image which is not a bad thing but  becomes one when you try to over do it which is what majority of these so called bankers do.
