I'm always reminded of my Wall Street trader friend, and his chat with me:

From 9:30 to 4, I'd kill my mother to make a dime on a trade. My own mother, that's how driven I am to make money. I'd kill her on the spot for that dime if I could get away with it.

Of course, after 4, she's my mom. And I'd love her to death. He works for a very well respected Wall Street Firm.

Food for thought. What people will do for money.



> What people will do for money

Or: What people will say to impress their friends


I'm not sure what kinds of friends would be impressed by such things.
