About the Book
|
Amazon Top 100 Reviewer (Linda Zarate)
This is a chronicle of one man’s attempt to do the right thing only
to pay a high price in his personal and professional life. The book opens with
a quote from Merrill Lynch’s corporate counsel made when the author joined
the firm, “[b]ut let integrity slip and take second place to revenue –
then it will cost us more than dollars. The cost could be fatal.” This
sets the background in what was to become a war of one rookie financial consultant
against hypocrisy and internal expediency that was the opposite of the lofty
rhetoric of the corporate counsel. ...A few things about the story – there is no bitterness or rancor on
the part of the author. He is fair and objective, and writes in an even manner.
He names people by name, has thoroughly documented the episode and has left
it to the body of readers to be the court of public opinion. The book is a good
read, and it may just expose some of the fallacies in the very systems that
are designed to protect us as individuals, consumers and shareholders. |
