...fiftysomething, opted for an upfront lump sum of $161.5 million rather than the jackpot total spread out in payments over 25 years. That entitles each of them to $12.4 million pretax dollars--or the equivalent of a try-harder-next-year Christmas bonus for high-level bankers at Goldman Sachs. All the Lucky 13 remained anonymous, except John Jarrell, a 34-year-old father of three, who told reporters that one of his first purchases will be a Harley-Davidson for his wife that will match...
...afford not to invest in the powerful trend toward people's shopping, at incredibly low prices, from the convenience of their homes? That was the pitch I used back when I was a broker at Goldman Sachs, and since that was in 1986-87, I wasn't hawking the Internet but rather an outfit called Home Shopping Network, which peddled stuff on TV and took orders by phone.

Today, with the economic reform being pressed by Zhu Rongji, the new Premier, the Chinese dream knows no limits. "Making money has become the thing to do in China; people judge you by how wealthy you are," says Zhong...
...first shares to the public in 1995 while its movie Toy Story was a runaway box-office hit. Or that hockey's Florida Panthers made the move a year later, fresh from their first appearance in the Stanley Cup finals. Nor is it a fluke that Wall Street powerhouse Goldman Sachs, with the market at a historic high, is now mulling an initial public offering of its own. In the business of making your money mine, which is what any IPO is about, timing is everything...
