The body of a British banker who went missing shortly after losing his job, was found shot in the woods yesterday, officials confirmed.
It is believed that Huibert Boumeester shot himself in the head after losing his $992,000 a year job earlier this month.
The family of the forty-nine year-old father of two became concerned about his well being after he disappeared with one of his registered guns.
The highly respected Dutch financier, who had been on the board of Dutch banking group ABN Amro and a number of other firms, lost his job after his bank became the subject of the disastrous $83 billion takeover by the Royal Bank of Scotland that plunged RBS and its then CEO, Sir Fred Goodwin into crisis.

I know it would be devastating to lose your job and not know what you’re going to do, but that’s when you work it out. You decide you’re going to figure SOMETHING out and work hard to get it. Unfortunately, this seems like the “easy” way out.
