The Best of Braverman: A Monkey's Review

Man Week: Trial By Fire
Andy note: "Best of Eddie" - while Eddie is on vacation we're throwing up some of his classic posts from the past. This one from April 2011 is part of the very popular "Man Week" 3-part series. More to come later this week. If there's an old post from Eddie you'd like to see up again shoot me a...
Is It Worth It? - Spending my youth
Monkeys, As year 1 closes in, I've begun struggling with what I suppose is some sort of quarter life crisis. For many of us in banking, life to this point has been a constant series of "successes"--do well in high school, go to a top college, break into a top group on Wall Street--with the next...

Man Week: Taking a Beating
For some of you guys this will be the most important post of Man Week. Some will love it because I wrote it. Some will hate it because I wrote it. Some, however, will realize that this issue is bigger than the author and the story used to present its gist. This post is less about who we are and more...
Man Week: Playing Your Part
With the opening entry to Man Week, I wanted to bring you guys something that is both, useful and fun. I wound up having to deep six dozens of ideas. I realized that there were way too many issues to address and way too many possible routes to take. So I chose a road yet unpaved. Today, I will...
