WHERE ARE THEY NOW?

Surprise.... Answer..

The three who brought down Wall Street.

Here's a quick look into the three former Fannie Mae executives who
brought down Wall Street.

Franklin Raines was a Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Fannie
Mae.Raines was forced to retire from his position with Fannie Mae when
auditing discovered severe irregularities in Fannie Mae's accounting
activities. Raines left with a "golden parachute valued at $240 Million
in benefits. The Government filed suit against Raines when the depth of
the accounting scandal became clear.

Tim Howard - was the Chief Financial Officer of Fannie Mae. Howard "was
a strong internal proponent of using accounting strategies that would
ensure a "stable pattern of earnings" at Fannie. Investigations by
federal regulators and the company's board of directors since concluded
that management did manipulate 1998 earnings to trigger bonuses. Raines
and Howard resigned under pressure in late 2004. Howard's Golden
Parachute was estimated at $20 Million!

Jim Johnson - A former executive at Lehman Brothers and who was later
forced from his position as Fannie Mae CEO. Investigators found that
Fannie Mae had hidden a substantial amount of Johnson's 1998
compensation from the public, reporting that it was between $6 million
and $7 million when it fact it was $21 million." Johnson is currently
under investigation for taking illegal loans from Countrywide while
serving as CEO of Fannie Mae. Johnson's Golden Parachute was estimated
at $28 Million.
