Good grief. Simplifying this to “they took on tons of deposits and felt the need to make risky unchartered investments to retain their existing level of returns” is just so stupidly greedy. JFC, I think here of a ship with a heavy keel; only for the captain to order cargo many multiples the weight of the keel to sit above deck. Why can’t so many folks who are doing well enough just act with basic common sense and integrity these days?
