Curious to see what type of severence package he gets.  It will be the most scutinized retirement plan ever between the shareholders and government.

Ken had well over 2 mil. shares of BAC and a net worth of around 90 mil. when I left in Feb.  I wouldn’t be to worried about a retirement package if I were him.

This is simply a consequence of bad choices.  These big institutions have “To Big to Fail” on their brain and end up taking way to much risk with shareholders money. 

Its a shame, I rather liked Ken Lewis.

I think he got a bad rap toward the end. I am curious to see who replaces him. Read an article yesterday mentioning the former CEO of Bank One(when it was clusterf8ck). Bank of America looks to me like Citigroup of 3 years ago. Not many people have the ability to run such a place(ask Vikram). I think for all the bad decisions Ken gets blamed for, I think he brought BOA to the forefront of banks.

Angelo Mozilo is top candidate

dont worry ken will make up his supplemental retirement by writing his dirty little secrets in a tell all book.  i cant wait

I think time will show Ken Lewis made the correct move purchasing Merrill. The deal that got him into trouble is he overpaid for Countrywide.

mlgone…after reading all of your posts, i have decided…you are a loser. Did ML kick you out so you could come on a message board and talk bad about them??? Let me guess, “you went independent” just like the rest of these guys that are on a message board that is titled “What is Up at Firms”
