In case you were wondering (and who the heck wasn't') Prince Alwaleed's new jet is outfitted with not one but two "throne rooms." The original thinking was that one would be for him, and one for Chuck Prince. Obviously that plan went to shit . Which is fitting. And on the DL? Throne room = bathroom. Oh, and thanks to Meredith Whitney, there’ll be no bowling alley or swimming pool...

The sight of businessmen such as E Stanley O'Neal and Chuck Prince pocketing millions of dollars as they quit companies losing billions in value sticks in the throat of many less fortunate.

You know, you get rid of Chuck Prince and the humility at Citigroup just comes a flooding through. The bank which, as you know, has lost hundreds of billions of dollars, has gotten rid of one of its corporate jets (the Falcon 2000) in an effort to inch its way toward profitability.
