I do want the tax system to be efficient and be conducive to growth, which it is not.
Jamie Dimon
And if you're going to be a leader, you know what I ask myself? Would I want to work for you in this job? Would I let my children work for you? Would I give you this job if I wasn't there to provide oversight? If you went to run another company, would I, as an investor, invest in that company?

We continued to build the business, even in the worst of times. We do business all over America.

My father and grandfather were stockbrokers, and they would actually take stock certificates from a vault, give it to a runner, and send it to another vault.

Jamie Dimon
If you have the choice, it's far better to say, That person has the job, and they really don't need that much of my oversight. Maybe they don't need any of it.
Jamie Dimon
I have gotten disturbed at some of the Democrats' anti-business behavior, the sentiment, the attacks on work ethic and successful people. I think it's very counter-productive.
Jamie Dimon
I am not embarrassed to be a banker. I am not embarrassed to be in business.
Jamie Dimon
My operating assumption is we will always have very tough competition. And even with some European banks struggling right now, some of them can reemerge - and maybe even stronger.
Jamie Dimon
Any good job is a good job. This whole concept of a dead-end job? It's not true. I've heard it my whole life. Jobs lead to dignity. If you're good at the first, then you can get the second. Jobs lead to household formation. Jobs are a better solution for society.
Jamie Dimon
Economies of scale are a good thing. If we didn't have them, we'd still be living in tents and eating buffalo.
Jamie Dimon
No one can forecast the economy with certainty.
Jamie Dimon
