"There are 25-year-old kids walking around in merchant banks these days earning $300,000 a year."

Ahh envy ... where are all these 25 year old Merchant Bankers?

Someone should tell Richo that unlike back benchers, who only have to have a pulse and avoid 12 month jail terms to retain their stipend, the expectations of delivery on a 25 year old Merchant Banker could well be a bit higher.

.. and if one were caught splurging shareholders’ funds on hookers and anything else they had a penchant for there certainly wouldn't be a 4 year internal investigation that produced nothing.

Once again the 'Political Class' demonstrate their complete disconnect with the rest of Australia and apparently suffers from the delusion that anyone of them could simply fall into a 'Merchant Banker' role. They are legends in their own mind.
