Send us a text

We share our unfiltered personal stories from the front lines of the 2008 financial crisis.  Maybe you've read the headlines: banks going under (SVB, First Republic), UBS acquiring Credit Suisse, offers being rescinded, and worry about what will happen if you’re starting your career during a financial crisis.  They say past is prologue so  we share what it was like being on the trading floor of Lehman Brothers when it collapsed, or working firsthand on the financial products that caused a global economic meltdown.   We also reflect on lessons learned for navigating your career path during times of uncertainty.  Our most raw, personal episode yet!
