Great audiobook. The author did an extraordinary job of captivating the reader by telling his own story. As you listen to his account of the “Wall Street Story”, you feel like an insider. He also does a good job of teasing you into listening for the rest of the story. I found he shed a lot of light on the inner workings of the stock market by educating the listener. Things that you only thought were true, after listening, realize they were worse that you thought.

Smith takes the listener from the beginning of his career in 2000, through all the twists and turns in his apprenticeship to promotion and then finally, his resignation in 2012. He sought change throughout his career and after speaking out to the board of directors, resigning and then speaking out publicly was the way to do just that.

I think anyone interested in all the recent news stories concerning the sit-in and 911, along with the Wall Street corporate world, will be intrigued and affected.

I recommend this to anyone who invests. It’s a good audio to listen to on a long trip. It will leave you more knowledgeable and also make you think, which makes a good challenge you’re your mind.
