So, was not just SUV's speeding. How many in your speeding vehicle? Oil
makes about 16% profit. Citigroup about 34%.



Horse****!! How would Citigroup make a 34% profit when their interest
rates aren't even that high?????? Let alone their operating expenses!


Citigroup earned $5.27 billion, or $1.05 a share, in the second quarter, up
from 5.07 billion, or 91 cents a share, in the quarter a year ago. Revenue
rose 10 percent, to $22.2 billion.

$5.27B divided by $22.2B = 24.4%
