I understand your logic, but what if they put him in at a bank just to say: 'Who run this motha?'

The oilgarchs care more about keeping the proverbial boot on the chest of the status quo than they do about reputation.

An engine failure of an airplane will suffice.

You know its bad when the rats jump ship.

I choose "Other" because the option:

"The Gimp in Bernanke's S&M Dungeon" wasn't on there...

I'm sure the little ferret will bank some serious public sector coin.

Not to worry.

He will be taking it easy working on the fixer-upper he bought in Abbottabad.

Or any number George Soros front groups, but it seems the fav lately for these types of administration flunkies is the Center for American Progress(ives).

1) back to the CFR, or

2) event coordinator for the Bilderburgers

event coordinator? Try fluffer.

I chose "Other" because "Hell" was not an option.

Fri, 07/01/2011 - 02:49 | 1418039 AgShaman

I did the same.

Timmy the "G" is a liability....the Bernanke (Pennywise) most likely wants to be finished with his sidekick....and looks to pawn him off on some hapless Investment Bank, nationalized money pits like the "F" troop/group 'Wonder Twins of Death', or perhaps some meaningless ratings agency looking to continue the pixie dust sprinklins'

Don't you want him? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8n2v9fUa4Vc&NR=1

cue the 80's Human League music....with Timmy lip syncin' his swan song

+1. That was my thought process too.

I thought that's where he was sending us... as soon as he can find a suitable handbasket.

Thu, 06/30/2011 - 18:02 | 1417100 Mr Lennon Hendrix

+1,

Little Nicky is going back to where he came from.

Thu, 06/30/2011 - 18:13 | 1417108 augie

The deep south?

I always thought he woulda been great selling used-cars, or masquerading as a traveling salesman.

or in the circus?

Neither was Tides foundation. But then there I go repeating.

Thu, 06/30/2011 - 17:46 | 1417033 DutchTreat

Or run a Mom and Pop store with Oshamea

Thu, 06/30/2011 - 17:42 | 1417031 EndTheFED

You forgot jail.

Thu, 06/30/2011 - 19:22 | 1417303 Fox Moulder

Solitary confinement is on there.

How about IRS auditor? He's got the tax cheat experience.

Thu, 06/30/2011 - 17:59 | 1417077 slaughterer

Goldman Sachs IS jail.

Fri, 07/01/2011 - 09:57 | 1418561 DaveyJones

albeit white collar federal. golf course included.

We here at Goldman are happy to welcome Mr. Geithner into our corporate headquarters in NYC.

Thu, 06/30/2011 - 19:44 | 1417349 YHC-FTSE

I thought he was already an alumni of GS like most of the central bankers over there. I vote for solitary confinement or McDonalds (Same thing really) - but it's just wishful thinking.

Thu, 06/30/2011 - 21:15 | 1417566 Tuco Benedicto ...

No, the food in solitary confinement is much healthier! Tuco Benedicto Pacifico Juan Maria Ramirez

Mr. Dimon has already spoken for Timmy, and has a corner office at J.P. Morgan along with kneepads and a shoeshine kit.

Maybe Dimon is next Treasury Sec'y

Thu, 06/30/2011 - 20:34 | 1417467 Arius

two reasons why not:

- too temperamental

- more importantly, he doesnt pass the "doing God's work" test ...

Thu, 06/30/2011 - 17:58 | 1417087 kito

no wayyyyy does he go to goldman. way too dweebish for goldman

Thu, 06/30/2011 - 18:29 | 1417161 Arius

read the tea leaves ... he is giving you a clue ... main reason cited for leaving: family reason, his son would like to finish his last year of high school in NY .... got it ??? it is called testing the waters ... aka ... a trial balloon ... i think it will fly ... why not ... afterall the revolving door worked for everyone priorly so do not see any reason not to work for him ...

Thu, 06/30/2011 - 18:41 | 1417183 traderjoe

He'll get a $1 million advance for a book, tour with it for a year, and then land at a bank. That gives the bankers a year to hire him - a direct hire will look too suspicious.

Thu, 06/30/2011 - 19:51 | 1417365 Arius

the way The Douleur has been doing under his leadership make that advance a cool $10 million ... after all he has quite a few things to tell ...

other: IMF or World Bank
