Hello and welcome to the monkey profile! I'm going to paste a couple paragraphs for the sake of testing.

Goldman Sachs is on track to make the biggest bonus payouts in the company's 140-year history — according to a report in the British newspaper 'The Guardian'. Goldman staff in London were reportedly told that they could expect record bonuses if the company — as predicted — has its most profitable year ever.

The investment bank's earnings are up for several reasons — including a lack of competition, along with increased revenue from trading foreign currency, bonds and fixed income products.

Just last week Goldman Sachs repaid the government the $10 billion in TARP money it had received — which would leave it free to do whatever it wants. Yet the company is denying these reports about record bonuses, calling them "pure speculation." They say they won't know what bonuses will be until the end of December.
