Thread regarding Bank of New York Mellon Corp. layoffs

Coronavirus doesn’t care about your wealth and power

Look, I don’t wish this virus on anyone, but there is a kind of justice — in that wealthy and powerful people can’t simply buy their way out of this Coronavirus risk.

Welcome to a vulnerable existence of the kind with which the rest of us live on a daily basis — and one for which you are largely responsible.

@1ddi+13UmxKQh ... I had to anthropomorphizing. The best analogy to describe that word is in kids cartoons where spongebob or animals assume 'human' qualities like talking and walking. Very appropriate for this place where the leadership can remind you of cartoon characters.

BTW ... I agree with @1hib+13UmxKQh.

I completely agree with this post. But I'd go further. This market downturn proves that the ago old emotions that drive the market, fear and greed, are very much both alive. It also DISproves the phrase "this time is different" for all those megarich who are trying to convince everyone with their sense of entitlement that everything is wonderful.

Yes the super rich might get the super sniffles. That is justice for sure.

Thank you for this incredibly useful information related to layoffs at BNY Mellon. I am now more informed about current layoffs and possible future layoffs.

Well, it does care about your age. The CDC yesterday said that over 80% of all people who got the virus who are under the age of 60 only got mild symptoms and recovered fairly quickly. The people who are most at risk are the elderly or those with serious underlying health conditions. So therefore, it would appear that wealth and power are not factors concerning this coronavirus
