Why should I run a major bank?

1. I have no pre-existing alliances to the current regimes. 
2. I will learn how things ought to be run and make that the way things are done, instead of cleaving to entrenched viewpoints or defending previous stupid acts. 
3. I don’t need to earn as much as the current big guys because that is not how I measure my worth. 
4. I believe that there should be nothing in the fine print that undoes the agreement in the big print. 
5. I believe that bonuses should depend on a banker’s track record of success. 
6. I believe that common sense must prevail and paper profits are meaningless unless they reflect real profits. 
7. The bank’s portfolio should be a healthy mix of low, moderate and high risk deals. 
8. Kick me out in 3 years, even if I do a good job.  And give me a nice cake at my going-away party.
