A Wall Street legend offers an intimate memoir.
Recommendation
When young John Mack considered his future, he assumed he’d run a menswear store with his cousin in his home state of North Carolina. But a part-time college job at a securities firm altered his career trajectory. This fascinating, entertaining tale from Morgan Stanley’s former CEO provides remarkable insight into life on Wall Street. Mack takes you behind the scenes from the frenetic trading floor to sensitive boardroom conversations with America’s most prominent financial personalities. Bright, egotistical, ruthless and charming, Mack made brutally difficult decisions without wavering and saved Morgan Stanley during the 2008 financial crisis.
