New Yorkers

Hello fans,
Between being told my wife tastes like honey nut cheerios to tonight's blowout against the Pacers (if you guys didn't notice, I checked out pretty early, just wasn't percolating), I think I'm ready to leave basketball and start a new chapter in my life.

I have made some moves exploring physical commodities trading and was fortunate enough to have gotten an interview at one of these firms (think Bunge, LD, Cargill, etc.). If any fans out there with experience in this industry could be so kind, what books would be helpful in learning about grains, metals, energy and such?

Help me here, guys, and I'll leave the game with pride...bring a championship to new york, run train on Lebron's mom, you name it.

Always a Knick,
Melo
