If you think about it, Decap actually didn't belong in this world of billion dollar finance. Remember the final scene? The top spun! He is still at least two levels down and his wife in the real world is trying to get him out.
We'll have to agree to disagree about global warming until the next global cooling scare comes along
Can't fully agree....the top began to wobble, remember? Sequel?

My interpretation is that he is still dreaming. The top is the key:
--It was his wife's totem first. The point is made that you should not touch someone else's totem because it leaves you open.
--You do not see him leave it spinning until the end. The first time he spins it either he picks it up or they cut away--can't remember. The second time he tries to spin it but fails when it falls onto the floor--not a true test of his state. You can see his uncertainty.
--Third time it keeps going. A wobble is not a fall.
But I will have to see it again!

there was something said about having your own, unique totem, so other 'bad guys/what were they called?' couldn't get to you, or trick you.
I don't know how the fact that it was his wife's totem, gleaned from the fact that he opened her safe if the flash backs, ultimately plays out, but that's something that I thought about. He was opened up to manipulation (by his wife?) due to this fact.

the totem was now his. Or do we have to conjecture more rules to argue the point about totems?

...with the wobble and not knowing if it toppled over, we have no idea what level he is on.
Geez ...I hope the sequel is shorter.
