&lt;p&gt;Credit Suisse is making good on that promise it made at the latest G-20 summit, altering the way it will pay 7,000 senior bankers, pushing salaries north while deferring a significant amount of bonus compensation and&amp;nbsp;moving some of that bonus compensation from cash into stock. The announcement is a big score&amp;nbsp;for European governments and underscores the drastic changes that European banks are making to their compensation policies. &lt;p&gt;But here in the U.S., it looks like it could be business as usual next year, as Wall Street&amp;nbsp;bonuses are expected to jump 40 percent this year (after falling about 44 percent last year).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And what&#39;s a big bucks discussion without the Oracle of Omaha&#39;s two cents? Indeed, it&#39;s a non-issue, which is why Warren has chimed in on the topic, saying, in so many words (in an interview with the CEO of Business Wire),&amp;nbsp;that when the shyte hits the fan and shareholders lose their shirts, someone in charge needs to be banking a lot fewer Dead Presidents than they did when people shareholders were killing it. &lt;p&gt;To be fair,&amp;nbsp;we&amp;nbsp;should probably let the Oracle speak for himself. What he actually said&amp;nbsp;in the interview about what needs to be done to the pay structure at the nation&#39;s top banks is this:&amp;nbsp;&quot;What you have to change in Wall Street is you have to make sure that in addition to carrots, there are sticks.&quot; &lt;p&gt;Right on, Warren. Sticks. We absolutely, positively&amp;nbsp;need to make sure that there are tons and tons of those suckers. Or else.&lt;/p&gt;
