Description
Behind the glamour of Wall Street's top firms lies a different story. Monkey Business takes readers on a journey into the world of investment banking, revealing the realities of life behind the scenes. From the gruelling interview process to the high-stakes world of client courting, this book offers a unique insight into the cutthroat world of finance. At the heart of the story are two young men who, on their way to achieving the American dream, discover that the price of success may be higher than they ever imagined. With unflinching honesty, they expose the dark side of the industry, where long hours, inflated salaries, and high-powered personalities come at a cost. A humorous and often unbelievable account of life at DLJ, Monkey Business is a worthwhile read for anyone looking to understand the real world of investment banking.
