Todd Harrison has always told it like it is. This at times, has caused him no small amount of problems.
That comes across in his personal story, The Other Side of Wall Street: In Business It Pays to Be an Animal, In Life It Pays to Be Yourself.
For those of you who do not know Toddo, he started at Morgan Stanley’s trading desk, then went to hedge fund giant Galleon (recently in the news for some issues with their inside info!). He eventually ended up as a partner at Jim Cramer’s hedge fund, where Todd was President and head trader. Todd was also one of the very first market bloggers at TheStreet.com
