		<description>@Sam - Hah, well we&#039;ve not yet got the billions. They&#039;ll just be thrown into the black hole of Government spending and our deficit, alas.  Glad you&#039;re enjoying my ongoing campaign against bankers&#039; ridiculously unjustified salaries.

Don&#039;t worry though, when the revolution comes and half the bankers have to retrain as soya bean farmers, I&#039;ll find a nice local bank for you to manage. ;)</description>

		<description>@SMSFs - To be honest I aspire to be a Buffett-style buy-the-business investor. I waited years for Standard Chartered to get cheap, then swooped in the crisis, so I won&#039;t sell out lightly on price movements. I might if I feel my holding has become to heavy relative to my net worth, which won&#039;t happen for a while.

I think it&#039;s business is growing brilliantly, and the whole crisis (which it largely sidestepped) has proven its model. It&#039;s exposed to much more than in China, though there&#039;s no doubt a big correction there would hurt it.

It&#039;s a good play on the whole emerging market story, but with UK corporate governance and even a dividend! :)</description>

		<description>Re Standard Chartered ... you don&#039;t think it&#039;s worth &quot;taking some off the table&quot; as Mr Cramer (now there&#039;s someone I don&#039;t go round quoting frequently!).

I assume that STAN is a China story. And the China story looks a bit like universal truth at the moment. (-:

		<description>Better late than never... thanks for the recognition! 

I&#039;ve been working on a presentation about incentives and motivation for work so I find this fascinating. The science say tasks requiring cognitive skills are often negatively impacted when paired with financial incentives. Seems the science may hold true here. China pays less but has more.... hmmm

		<description>To be fair, isn&#039;t it worth remembering that China is still a communist (at least nominally) country? Maybe a real revolution in banker&#039;s remuneration will only be delivered by the business end of a cheap imitation Kalashnikov...</description>

		<description>Oh how I love this wraps, and your diatribes against bankers! lol.

How&#039;s the $1.5 billion treating you and your people?  Building a Disney Land perhaps, or technology to create more blue skies? :)

		<description>Thank for the mention...

But more importantly, THANKS for bring me into your world, via your blog.  Previously, I had little exposure to your country, but now I feel like I get to see an occasional glimpse of some of the underpinnings that are happening in your backyard!  It&#039;s very delightful!!!

Thanks from a very personal level!

Cheers!</description>
