The New Wall Street: Fewer Strippers, Less Cocaine, And A Whole Lot More Sadness

In Kevin Roose’s new book, Young
Money: Inside the Hidden World of Wall Street’s Post-Crash
Recruits, the New York magazine writer
chronicles the lives of eight twenty-somethings as they start their
careers on post-financial-crisis Wall Street.

What he finds is that the financial sector is neither the
bastion of strippers and blow you see in the movies, nor the
natural destination for ambitious graduates it once was. Instead,
it has become a place where, for many young people, fun goes to
die.

HuffPost Biz took a few minutes to chat with the 26-year-old
Roose and get his take on the book and the changing financial
industry.
