Goldman Sachs announced its second-quarter results today, and they were impressive. Here's a bit of fun math to illustrate just how impressive: GS set aside $6.6 billion this quarter to pay employee bonuses at the end of year. GS has 29,400 employees. That works out to an average bonus of $224,000 per employee -- for the second quarter alone. Annualized, that works out to a yearly bonus just shy of $900,000. Not bad for a year in which the rest of the world is debating whether we're in the early stages of a new Great Depression or just a very severe recession.
