    Simply amazing! This is my second time reading this title. As a broker in the current environment it is fun to read about the past. Thanks for your honesty Sir! PS: I believe you have made a MUCH more positive and impactful difference in the world with your literary contributions then you ever would have as a Managing Director.
  • Great book

    I loved this book. Currently, I am a sophomore in college with an interest in a finance career. This book helped direct and solidify that interest in sales and trading. Although I am certain this is not the intent of the book, I can’t help but admit that Lewis’s description of both the competitive culture of Salomon and the myriad of idiosyncratic characters who filled their ranks thoroughly enticed me. Perhaps this is a unintended effect of his superb skills as a salesman; he is able to exert them unknowingly. I would recommed this book to anyone interested in a fun narrative about life on Wall Street during the 1980s.

    Great book. Still captures what life on Wall Street is like today. Although it's faster and more intense than it was 20+ years ago.
  • Great glimpses into Wall Street 1980's

    I was glued to this book. Read it in a couple of weeks and really enjoyed Lewis' portrayal of wall street in the 80's. Still quite relevant today.

    I picked up this book without having seen the publish date or knowing anything about it. An entertaining and informative book on Wall Street +20 years ago. Worth reading, if only to widen your scope on the recent crisis.
