The Winners Circle: How 30 Financial Advisors Became the Best in the Business

This informative and entertaining book imparts how 30 super financial advisors rose to the top of their profession. A reader will be privy to a behind-the-scenes look at financial wizards like Ace Greenberg of Bear Stearns, Ira Walker of Morgan Stanley, and Mark Curtis of Salomon Smith Barney.

But they all have one thing in common: they're the absolute, hands-down, best in the business. They discuss everything from how they are able to build businesses managing billions of dollars in assets to how they invest their clients' money.
