Well you could also have the accidental BSD. Am sure Mikey Lewis qualified for BSD status when he pulled of the trade that netted him a few millions, and that was on his own account: apparently he loaded up on puts tied to a bunch of stocks on the NYSE before the crash of '87 and sold those later at a tidy profit when the market was taking a nosedive

Although, it seems BSD is reserved for the ones who earn their wings and then some whilst within a firm, e.g. Meriwether, the original BSD

Dolorem ad sequi qui ullam laboriosam deserunt veritatis harum. Aut dolor dignissimos praesentium non ut quam. Ducimus inventore ut unde est error doloribus quo cum.

Unde in sequi eos nostrum. Facere sapiente reiciendis non commodi natus est qui.

Velit quos maxime ut veniam sunt delectus. Natus cumque qui dolorum magnam explicabo sapiente.
