I don't get it when you hear the senior guys gripe so much. Granted, I'm just a lowly SO but have heard the A-scale guys get something like $15m (HKD) guaranteed at retirement plus your 15.5% into the PF! C'mon guys, that's almost $2m USD!!! You're making $2m HKD plus a year and get another $15m at retirement. Sure, it's not the deal you expected to get pre-'99 but it's still a hell of a lot of money. I'm happy making what I do here given the US hiring prospects, so don't tell me how bad your situation is.

744Cap, I get your thing about where we go and will admit it can seem pretty cool, but you senior guys came and stay because of money. Nothing else.
