As eager-beaver business school students, Rolfe and Troob garnered job offers as junior associates at the elite Wall Street investment bank Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette, lured by dreams of wealth, glamour and power. Readers whose fascination with Wall Street shenanigans has been fueled by Michael Lewis's Liar's Poker will find this thorough rundown of an investment bank associate's daily routine sobering. By the time Rolfe and Troob were able to discern the key fact that the "investment banking community has long been an oligopoly, with only a handful of real players with the size and scale to drive through the big deals," they were already grappling with the gritty reality of performing grunt labor in an environment ruled by despotic senior partners who called innumerable meetings to set unrealistic deadlines and make superhuman demands on anybody within screaming distance. The authors' resulting disappointment and disaffection leaps off every page. Unfortunately, they take out their frustrations with indiscriminate potshots at such easy targets as word processors ("Christopher Street fairies"), copy center personnel ("a platoon of patriotic Puerto Ricans" they offhandedly refer to as "militants") and female research analysts (whom they describe as "under-sexed, eager-to-please"). Long before the hapless authors have stooped to expressing their fury at the bank by such puerile antics as urinating into a beer bottle while seated at a banquet table at the Christmas party, readers will have had enough. (Apr.)

John Rolfe grew up in the heart of Dixie. After stints at Virginia Tech and the University of Florida, he took a job doing broadcast research in New York City, convinced that "if I can make it there, I can make it anywhere." In 1993, after concluding that Frank Sinatra had sold him a bill of goods, John entered the Wharton School of Business, where he edited The Wharton Vulgarian. Following his sentence with DLJ, he was a principal with a private investment organization. Currently, John is a freelance man of sport and leisure, and is honing his panhandling skills for the next bear market.

Peter Troob grew up on the rough-and-tumble streets of Scarsdale, New York, and while in grade school starred in James and the Giant Peach. Peter attended Duke University, then worked for Kidder Peabody in New York City. In 1993 he entered the graduate program at the Harvard Business School, where he edited the humor section in the Harbus and wrote the "Kosher Korner" column. This made his mother proud. Peter is currently a partner with a private investment organization and is anticipating many happy years there.

银行业创始之初，银行家们和毒品贩子存在诸多的类似。银行家也是对客户说：“我的货色最好，只有我才能真的为您解决问题。答户暗自思忖：“这家伙外表看上去还挺像样儿，也比较机灵，大概能满足我的要求吧。”于是客户购买了商家推荐的货品，带回了家，将之纳入自己的投资组合中，接下来的就是耐心地等待了。这些金融产品不是狂跌，就是暴涨，要不就是风平浪静，没有任何的变化。可只要那些货品没有攀升，客户就不能实现发财的目的。客户也有倒霉的时候，运气特别差的话，买回来的那些烫手的金融产品也有可能会要了他们的小命。这就是动物界的“物竞天择”的道理。

在1929年的股市“大崩盘”前，银行家卖给公众的好多都是些“破烂货”而且还号称证券。银行家们好像在把一小包面粉包起来，硬对客户说是可卡因。反正客户不会在意，他们从来也没有尝试过可卡因，不知道应该是什么滋味的。有的家伙更傻，买同样的一包面粉，却愿意出比常人高很多的价钱。此后突然有一天，有人偶然吸食了一点误以为是白粉的“面粉”，恍然大悟，原来纸包里根本不是可卡因！那些白色的东西全是些一钱不值的东西。这个“发现者”卖出

了拥有的面粉，并把自己的发现告诉了朋友。他的朋友紧接着给经纪人打电话，也要求抛售自已的那份面粉，同时还把这件事情告诉了更多的朋友。不久，一传十，十传百，大家都纷纷将所有的面粉出售，谁也不想再买进了，所以就发生了大崩盘”。整个游戏至此暂告结束。
