#21 Timothy Geithner
Secretary
United States Treasury
U.S.
Age: 48
Bailout decider presides over financial equivalent of Cuban Missile Crisis. Less than inspiring rollout didn't inspire much confidence. Now with health care, energy bills stalled, pressure mounting to sell financial reform to Congress, Wall Street buddies. Updated job description: Keeping tabs on $700 billion in bailout funds, restructuring banks, directing auto and housing recovery, staving off protectionist demands, defending Obamanomics. Could use a personal day: Says reports of 100-hour workweeks grossly underestimated. "There is no typical day, and it's so much worse than you think."
