Seduction and Betrayal on Jim Cramer's Wall Street.
Nicholas Maier entered the financial world as a neophyte college graduate, working as a low-level assistant to a high-profile hedge fund manager. Little did he know he'd receive an education on Wall Street far beyond anything he could have imagined in school.
Maier takes us on a journey through the volatile, anything-goes mentality of hedge funds, as he dodges his boss's violent verbal tirade and flying office supplies. He details the ethically and legally questionable practices implemented at the fund, from selling short and using "soft money" to leaking important information.
He also profiles some of his colleagues - ego-driven, yet often brilliant - and looks at SEC investigations, the often tumultuous relationship between broker and client, and the relationships between his boss and a certain media figure that yielded knowledge of financial news stories before they aired.
