that means we could be looking at a year and a half of no significant cash coming into the manhattan RE market. we know bear, merrill, lehman , BoA, Citi , UBS wont be paying out any real cash (not talkin stock or deferred comp) because they are either gone or under government restrictions. the rest of the banks wont be forced to pay out alot because of the amount of talent thats walkin around lookin for work right now. hmm...maybe I should sign a year lease right now to keep myself from being stupid and buying something before things really tank.

I could not disagree more. Do you know where last years bonuses stand in relation to historical levels?
