Guest Sean Sessel: “I got to a really dark place because I felt like I had to make that choice: That I could either be financially successful but I could only do so if I sell my soul, sell my values─or, I could be broke. Neither one of those options was acceptable to me.”

”Goldman Sachs was one of my big clients and I always tried to give them the most competitive price that I could in the FX markets. Through the broker market, I wound up meeting at a dinner the trader who was on the other end of the phone at Goldman Sachs. He was grateful that I quoted him such competitive prices and wanted to say thanks. He asked if I was interested in speaking to some people on their desk. It was the kind of thing that can happen in a career where you get to know the people that work at a competitor and wind up getting a job offer from them because they liked your style and thought that you could help their operation.”
