This is a question Conspicuous Consumption

Have you ever been photographed sat on a balcony eating a croissant; or wallowed in luxury just for the sake of it? What's the most ostentatious thing you ever seen or done?

No no.
Anyone working in finance in the City is a wanker, I assure you.

I think it may be you that's the wanker for stereotyping people... just a thought.

Not at all. They work in finance, in the city, by choice, they enjoy ripping people off, for pleasure.
as evinced by ... oh ... I don't know ... the global financial crisis, say?

If they were that nice and fluffy and friendly and nice, they'd be fucking hippies, wouldn't they?

So 350,000 people are all wankers cause they ended up working in the city, I'm a wanker cause I happened to gravitate towards a financial job rather than media, engineering, manufacture, retail or hippy? How is somebody working in the back or middle office of a bank ripping people off when all they're doing is performing an administrative function in the same way as an employee working in any corporation?

everybody in the city is to blame for the financial crisis?

You sound like you've been reading the daily mail too much.
