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.

It's moderate growth, with some parts of the world better than people think, and better than last year [2015].
Jamie Dimon
All our clients know that we're there, we're steady, we do a good job, we earn a fair return for ourselves, which I think is critical.
