The Other Side of Wall Street provides an immensely personal, insider’s view of the turbulent past decade on Wall Street. Todd Harrison chronicles his escape from the treadmill of hedge fund Hades to the wonderful world of Minyanville. To read this book is to become emotionally involved in the journey of an incredibly talented, increasingly introspective, and articulate writer; but on a larger scale, it is about the journey we all share.
This book is worth reading because it provides a rare glimpse of someone who has been inside the Wall Street machine and has been chewed up and spit out only to jump back in time-and-time again to disprove the naysayers and doubters. It will inspire people to truly think about what’s important to them as they try to navigate a chaotic world, live life to the best of their ability, make money, be true to family, but more importantly, to be true to themselves and find some semblance of balance.
The Other Side of Wall Street ends with Chapter 18 aptly titled “The Journey,” but there are now another dozen chapters since the book was written, a new addition to Todd’s family since it went to print, and countless changes positive and negative in Minyanville Media’s evolution. There will be dozens more to follow. Todd Harrison and Minyanville Media have been years in the making, but truth be told, the journey has only just begun.
