I thought Shinsei was the only profitable japanese bank (http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/corporatenews/view/40665/1/.html).
Maybe the other banks should start punching holes out of their buildings too. They could set it up as a smoking patiob and save all the money spent on those silly smoking rooms and ventilators that don't seem to work. It seems smarter than lending money to those who can't pay it back.

Yeah, I also thought Shinsei Bank was one of the rare banks that was doing well in Japan.
Posted by: Jean at June 6, 2003 12:16 AMThat weird cantilevered building used to house Long Term Credit Bank of Japan. LTCB went belly up in '98 due to several billions of dollars of unsupported loans. The missing base certainly reflected the management of LTCB.

interesting, this comment thing seems to strip out the Target=_blank on links.
Posted by: james at June 6, 2003 10:18 AMJames, what's weird is the target="_blank" is still there (you can view the source and see it) but it certainly gets ignored for some reason. I haven't been able to figure out how to fix it, but I changed the comment popup so it is resizable now, which should help.
Posted by: Dav at June 7, 2003 12:37 AMI tried seven or eight times, different variations, to make it open another window and it stripped the code every time. It strips it from the preview.
(i didn't have the nerve to post it seven or eight times to check the source)
Yet it opens a new window in the 'posted by' section.
It seems there should be an answer there...
Dav, I spent a 20 minutes farting around with it and looking at source code and got a headache. I really don't know what i'm talking about. I look at source code and immediatly get bogged down figuring out totally unrelated stuff in the code, stuff i've never seen before, and by the time i remember what the original point was, it's way past time i really should have been doing something productive.
It's not a big deal, altho... heh... it would be something that bugged me endlessly until i figured it out...
Posted by: james at June 7, 2003 03:13 AMAh, fixed the link target. Found out how in this post in the MT forum: "pop up comments links, links now load within the comment window"
"Put <base target="_blank" /> somewhere in the <head> section of the comments template."
Posted by: Dav at June 7, 2003 07:21 AMYep, Shinsei is doing better than the other Japanese banks. Star is supposed to be doing well too. I discovered the secret of Shinsei when I recently put some money in an account there. They have combined the best features (from a management perspective) of Japan and the U.S.: the tough fiscal management of the U.S. with the zero interest products of Japan. The only way to earn any interest on your savings is to put your money in some freaky account that returns your money in either yen or dollars--at the bank's convenience, whichever currency is worth less at the time you withdraw it (the "Powered Direct" account).
There seems to be no way to get any return on your yen in this country, so you either have to go for the exchange risk and do it in dollars, or just put you money under the futon. Stocks and real estate here are also losers.
