Lehman Brothers - the last days

I put together this video composition with a bunch of pictures and videos I had in my iPhone. It is an interesting summary of some happy & sad memories during the last days and hours of Lehman Brothers. If you like the video, leave your thumbs up here.
UPDATE: At the request of many who have asked about what I do now, you can check out the story "Google, Hugo Chavez, CIA, Lehman Brothers, Goldman Sachs, Harvard University, Randomness" that goes with the video right here http://bit.ly/sfrj5v. You can also check out http://about.me/LuisMSanchez. Since 2009 I have my own advisory firm, but as a hobby, I have been spending a lot of time trying to apply Wall Street valuation models & methodologies to mainstream topics, from health & fitness, to art, presidential elections and many things in between.

@jonoderidder I guess that in whatever industry you work, you are exempt from losing your job & savings. Good for you! You have everything figured out. Seriously.

Brill video! working for a near Wall Street casualty myself and reading the Big Short at the mo..so much went on that sometimes we need to draw our own conclusions. But i always wondered what the actual employees thought/ felt thanks for posting :)

[lmsanch]

@mona237 Thank you. I am glad you liked it..Things are not the same, post 2008 for fixed income financial quants, nevertheless, the whole thing has opened up some other interesting opportunities. Cheers

Many thanks for this video. Even the toughest opponent must acknowledge the greatness of this company and its people. No matter how they ended, they are legend.

I love this video. I have been searching for a video that gives us a glimpse from THE OTHER SIDE of the collapse. Sorry about what happened, but you did a great job on this vid.

I think it's easy for most people outside of the Lehman Brothers collapse to lose sight of the fact that real people were affected....Not just reach bastards who made out allright with their accounts well stocked....But folks who worked the trading floor....Sorry you had to go through that....Hope you made out allright.

find it kinda sad that i worry about my job most days because of what went on in that building!!

These almost four years have past, and it is as if Lehman never existed. All of it swallowed up and digested into nothing. This is what should have happened to rest of the too big to fails. We all would have been over this by now. Instead we are looking at a very uncertain future for many years to come. Every day wondering if this is the day it all comes down like the proverbial house of cards.

It lived off the market, and the market killed it. No more trust, no more loans.

So now what? Are you "kinda sad" that you believed in the Jew-ish dream only to get the shit kicked out of you? Where are you now? Do you blame yourself? How many people did you KNOW you robbed? How many lives did you take? Hey, I'm not saying this to make you "kinda sad". I 'm saying this to let you know that what you suffered that is "kinda sad" is detrimental to all of us. You should be saying why was I such a slave? Would I have awoken had I not lost my job? Well, did you awaken?

[starscreamdkmo]
