Related storiesA new report from Reuters released Wednesday raised more questions about the hours Lukenas may have been logging leading up to his untimely death.
Walters said Lukenas told him he was putting in more than 100 hours a week at Bank of America.
"He made a comment saying like, 'Hey, I'll trade hours of sleep for a 10% (pay) cut,'" Walters told Reuters.
Walters said he told Lukenas that was excessive, even by Wall Street's standards.
Prior to Lukenas' death, he had been participating on deal work related to UMB's $2 billion all-stock acquisition of Heartland Financial USA — a transaction that was announced in late April.
