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!


LOL. You really are clueless.


Well, then SHOW ME where Citigroup has made 34% profit.


They made 18.8% profit. But that's beside the point. You stated that
"their interest rates aren't even that high"...implying that they could earn
a profit that was only as high as their interest rate (whatever that is).

This shows ignorance on multi-levels.

There is an enormous range in Citigroup's lending rates. There is no such
thing as "their interest rate".

Citigroup's profits are derived from a much larger pool of revenues than
just the money they take in from their lending practices.
