While scanning the newspapers for news about my very own financial bailout, I ran across an alarming article... 

The headlines read:  AIG execs' retreat after bailout angers lawmakers.

I really couldn't believe the amount spent on the retreat and had to see the receipt for myself...  Does this make any sense to you?  The Federal Government (you and me) just passed a $700+ billion bail out bill and before the ink was dry AIG spent $450k on a retreat? 

Unbelievable.  Seriously.
