12:08 pm
chief to accumulate this amount of wealth. as i was reading through the story, which is a great story, how confident are you in these numbers? >> party confident. the first bucket is just jpm stock. the other is a little more mysterious and requires a little bit of our special bloomberg sauce, which is to take a valuation, say all the stock he sold, he was lucky he got fired because he did not sell when it was 90% down. to take that stock and compounded over the years, on top of the salary he has received, on top of his board memberships, and to do that over worthrs, that stake is
12:09 pm
$550 million. we are pretty confident that at $1.1 billion, he has crossed the threshold. jpmorganyou are a shareholder, should this be of any concern to you? bill: no, not really. as i have pointed out a few times, when jamie dimon first came to j.p. morgan chase through the merger, it was in one of his earlier shareholder meetings or investment day meetings. he said that jpmorgan stock should be $100 a share. however, he's still got, like, $40 a share he owes shareholders. it has been a tough ride to be a jpmorgan shareholder during the

12:11 pm
to be comfortable with $1.1 billion. pimm: is it unusual for someone to have this kind of money but for 40% of it to be in terms of shares of stock of the company he works for? bill: it's not unusual. you want your ceo to be in line with company investors. you point, jamie dimon is not a flashy guy. he's not like one of these hedge fund tycoons who is very flashy about his wealth. but if he had $20 billion, he might be a bit more. as you point out in your story, he has been criticized for being tone deaf, though, right, to the hole inequality issue? bill: absolutely. if you look at the value of their derivatives, he is personified sort of like the fatcat banker. the cliche. the fact that he is a
12:12 pm
billionaire is only going to add more flame to that. pimm: one last point about the in linepay package, with other chief executives of large banks. it's the biggest bank in the country. he and lloyd blankfein jockey for who gets paid the most in any given year. years,look over the people like sandy weil, whom you mentioned, and bruce wasserstein , other pure banker types have also crossed the billion dollar threshold. you know, if jamie dimon is not able to cross that threshold after all that he has done, you kind of wonder -- it's a lot of money. we're not going to feel sorry for the guy. pimm: well done. thank you very much. feedingtill ahead,
