Summary

The Wall Street Lifestyle

The princes and princesses of Wall Street are busy, talented, determined individuals. They spend long hours in the office and on the road.

Other pitfalls include entertaining clients, schmoozing over drinks and attending cocktail parties with tables full of tempting hors d’oeuvres. What’s missing for Wall Streeters...
