Bank exec pay not quite biblical, yet…

JPMorgan's JD is still down the pay scale compared with Christianity's JC.

Wells Fargo announced in March that its CEO Tim Sloan got a pay rise last year. He pulled in $18.4 million during 2018 – about $900,000 more than the previous year.

According to data from Barron’s, the chief executives at Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, Citi, Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan and Wells Fargo collectively earned $152 million last year – more than that of 2008, but not quite the heady peak of 2007 when it was $212 million.
