In this Wharton Leadership Lecture, former Merrill Lynch CEO John Thain offers his opinions as to what caused the crisis, what can be done to prevent it from happening again, and when it will be over — not just for the financial industry but also for Main Street. This is the first in a series of three videos on the lecture, which include Thain’s remarks to the audience, questions from the three-member panel and, finally, questions from the audience.

This is a lecture @ Wharton? Why would I pay to the school to listen to this crap?
btw. . Thank you so so much for posting this!!
Thain is the man!
Correction Mr. Professor. Thain wasn’t the one who wanted the merger with BAC. . . he only wanted to sell a 10% stake in Merill. It was all thanks to Greg Fleming who negotiated the merger at $29/Share (completely ripping off BAC) and convinced the unwilling Thain to do a merger.
This is a Wharton lecture? They sound like a bunch of morons that any simplton knows. I could not even listen to this Jeremy character. This is why our countries finances are in the dust.

Yea Thain is a rockstar. Who is this Jeremy Segal Guy?? For a Wharton Prof his questions blow!!!
