I cracked up when I read the following article, because it's just the sort of thing I like to tease you Type-A workaholic monkeys about. It's all about Jared Kleinstein, the 24-year old former ski instructor from Vail who founded Tebowing.com in October of last year. He was out drinking with some pals and he snapped a picture of them Tebowing outside the bar, created a web page of people's Tebowing pics, and is now rolling in dough three short months later.

I'm not suggesting that he hasn't worked hard or wasn't adept at recognizing a trend, but I think it's pretty safe to say he's never put in back-to-back 100-hour weeks. And there's a lesson there, monkeys. It's pretty easy to get IB tunnel vision when you're in school, or PE tunnel vision when you're on the job for the first couple years. But look around you: people are becoming overnight millionaires with pretty silly concepts. If that doesn't make you think twice about working hard, I don't know what will.

I love the Internet. The Internet is the lazy man's paradise. I'm not suggesting Kleinstein is lazy (though he could very well be - I don't know the guy), but I personally know people who pull in six figures a year for doing nothing more than being a middle man for web hosting companies and helping n00bs install free software. Hell, I know a guy who made over $100,000 in one 72-hour period last year just by convincing a bunch of online gurus to take a deep discount on their products all at one time.

Currently a hypothetical situation.

What would you guys do if your firms came to you and asked if you would give the company a bailout?

I feel that this situation might come up for me in the near future. My firm is looking to acquire a complementary firm and I think they will have to put up money if the deal goes south and falls apart. The thing I am worried about is that the amount will exceed the total easily liquid assets of the firm and they come to me and ask for money to keep the company afloat.

Would you? If so what would you ask for?

Bloomberg tracked down Morgan Stanley CEO James Gorman at Davos yesterday, and the conversation inevitably turned to the reduced comp at the bank. Gorman was unapologetic and said the $125,000 cash bonus cap and reduced all-in comp merely reflected the new realities of the market and that those who believed otherwise were "naive". He also made the point that someone who defines his overall happiness with his year-end number has bigger problems than the job, and that those who are really pissed about reduced bonuses should just quit because, "life's too short". The whole interview is really good, but if all you're interested in is the talk on compensation, that starts at 6:13.
