How hard is it to work on Wall Street?
(ft. Wall Street Exec)
Do you work on
Wall Street?
yes I do
what's it like
working on Wall
Street?
exhilarating
is everybody cut
out
no
it's very cutthroat
you got to be
matter of fact
I started working
overseas first
3 o'clock in the
morning
you know why
because I knew
there was nobody crazy enough
at 3 o'clock in the
morning
I was making over
a thousand phone
calls a day
so by the time
everybody came
to work
and strolling in
I'm already making money
I had one phone
on one ear
on the other ear
hi can I speak to
this one
while they're
going to get them
whoever picks up
first
did you get rejected a lot
98% of the time
some of my
biggest and best
clients
that I have today
it took me years
to get them
they didn't just say
