Review
Praise for YOUNG MONEY:"If Kevin Roose's finely crafted YOUNG MONEY does not scare you straight about the life of a young financial analyst on Wall Street, it can't be done. Roose's frolic through Wall Street's playpen is a must-read." --William D. Cohan, New York Times bestselling author of House of Cards and Money and Power"Despite all the press about Wall Street, the stories that don't usually get told are those of the recent college graduates who clamor for the chance to work 100 hour plus weeks at the big banks. Kevin Roose's new book, which follows a handful of analysts through the trials and tribulations of their early years on the Street, is a thoughtful exploration of their motivations and their experiences-and it's a great read." --Bethany McLean, coauthor of the New York Times bestsellers The Smartest Guys in the Room and All the Devils are Here"A cautionary true-life tale, YOUNG MONEY should be required reading for every college student who is contemplating a job on Wall Street. As for the rest of us, who remember Wall Street before 2008, Kevin Roose has provided a great window into how that world has changed-and how it hasn't." --Connie Bruck, New York Times bestselling author of The Predators' Ball"Highly entertaining and impressive ... Roose's captivating read is sure to appeal to readers young and old who are interested in the zeitgeist of Wall Street since the crash." --Publisher's Weekly"[Young Money] offers a compelling glimpse of Wall Street in the post-2008 recession era...thought provoking, excellent book." --Booklist"The young people who have flocked to Wall Street are often badly used, caught up in power struggles among middle management and little appreciated ... [Young Money] captures the daily indignities to which the junior capitalists are subjected." -- Kirkus Reviews

‘Young Money’ is a fly-on-the-wall account of a handful of young bankers just out of college who found jobs working on Wall Street around 2010. Kevin Roose convinced a few anonymous employees of such august institutions as Goldman Sachs and Bank of America to sit for interviews so that he could present this account of Wall Street following the financial devastation and drop in status that came with the Global Financial Crisis of 2008. He supplements the personal narratives with thorough research on the way that Ivy League colleges feed Wall Street, typical career paths on Wall Street, and some reporting on things like a secretive Wall Street fraternity and a dating event organized around bankers and models. His subjects let Roose in on their private thoughts regarding their jobs, many of which seem to have been near accidental career choices, rather than an occupation they’ve been set on from an early age. The jobs that banks make available to new college grads are high-paying and high-status but they also seem to attract a lot of graduates who don’t necessarily have a passion for banking itself. It’s interesting to read these personal stories where college students find out about Wall Street jobs from older students or students they play with on a sports team and this leads them to apply and get jobs which otherwise seem like the kind of competitive job that only the most driven and prepared students would qualify for.The work itself seems boring and often futile, consisting of preparing reports that must be written and formatted perfectly but that as often as not get thrown in the trash without being read or having any impact whatsoever. And the young employees must be available around the clock to do whatever their bosses tell them whether they had plans for after work or not. It’s perhaps not surprising that a lot of the subjects of this book leave the industry after a period of hating their jobs and looking for a way out.This is a great work of journalism which presents a panoramic portrait of Wall Street culture and will answer many of your questions about what it’s like to work in finance.
Prior to this, I read Liquidated by Karen Ho, an anthropologist who worked on the inside and had similar tales to tell of Wall Street. Kevin Rose is a journalist, and there is a significant difference on how the "story" of Wall Street is told. Both books are worth the read, so my comment should not be construed as a criticism of Karen Ho's. Kevin Roose provides a lighter read on the subject, but it is a good read because he focuses more on the stories of individuals and how their lives change. Kevin was not an insider, but through the lives of first year analysts that he followed, you begin to understand the transformation or solidification of personal values through the first two years of the Wall Street machine. It's not just reporting, Roose tells their story as a story teller. His role as a journalist is significant because only the presence of journalist would have been the catalyst for the reaction when his cover at a Wall Street banquet was blown. That reaction tells you a lot about how Wall Street bankers think - they don't deny their money-centric value system. They relish in it.
The author pens sweeping tale on post-2008 Wall Street, focusing on the work & lives of 8 recent hires to top banks. Kevin Roose of the New York Times charts these young people's career growth as they take on one of America's most reviled and formidable industries only years after the financial crisis.The author claims to be intrigued by these young people, but often colors his work with revulsion towards the big banks, his subjects' employers, for their role in the financial crisis. The author remains generally objective in evaluating his subjects and their stories are well-framed with applicable details from the news. Ultimately, Roose's tale is enjoyable but cannot be considered as objective as he intends.
Not much you wouldn't expect here. Hard to get in. ?Even harder to endure. But the payoff is big in the long run. About what you'd expect from medical internships, associateships in corporate law firms, and for wall street analysts training. These tales personalize the misery.Also, Roose comfirms a kind of psychopathic greed mentality on wall street--no surprise there either. If you think you want to read this book, I suggest borrowing it.
I do enjoy books that enlighten me about the world of finance and wall street and this one is good. It follows a number of young and newly hired financial analysts through their first 2 years, taking snapshots of their lives at different points. You gain insight to the jobs, the structure of finance, and the personal life (mainly work and more work). An interesting read, but oddly it didn't pull me into caring about the subjects as much as I might have thought.
Kevin Roose gives us a bird's eye view of the Wall Street of today through the eyes of first year analysts. He shows us the recruitment process, the day-to-day grind of the young people's lives in New York, the ethical questions that develop as a result of their experiences, and the challenges that they face in the future. As a result of reading this book, I have come away with a sense that some of the banking abuses from 2008-2009 still exist, even with increased government regulation. I did find it difficult to keep up with stories of so many people who were interviewed and observed. The style of writing is very readable, however. I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in a Wall Street career.
It was an interesting read. As one of the 99% at no time during my 20's did I come close to making the money these young people were and or are. It was interesting to see them setup for success (financial) and then be lost once they got there. I only found myself wishing I had known more about financial success at that age. Of course the Wall Street behavior is appalling but having watched Trading Spaces years ago I was prepared for this.
