Does anyone find it odd that on the numerous places this article has been posted on the internet, it says it is written by Ash Bennington, but the author references "asking Ash Bennington to look back on his years on Wall Street", then lists Ash Bennington's accolades, along with an unsourced quote from one John Carney? I am not trying to be snarky as the guidelines entail, but there are a lot of things here that seem unusual, the author seems to think a lot of himself

The first part is an introduction and the rest of the content is from Bennington so that makes sense.

I'd generally agree with the advice but would add an advice number zero: don't work in the financial sector. Unless you're a psychopathic serial killer who wants to kill all your co-workers, in which case you definitely should and if I'm ever on your jury I'll find you innocent so you can remove more of these pricks from the world.

I lived in London for a few years so I may be a bit biased.
