Monkey Business by Peter Troob

A hilarious insider's glimpse behind the scenes of DLJ, one of the hottest investment banks on Wall Street.



Newly graduated business students John Rolfe and Peter Troob thought life at a major investment banking firm would be a dream come true. But they discovered Wall Street employees to be overworked and at their wit's end. Twenty-hour work days, strip clubs, and inflated salaries-this hysterical book reveals it all. 



Monkey Business is a wild ride about two young men who realized they were selling their souls in exchange for the American Dream.
John Rolfe graduated from Virginia Tech, The University of Florida, and Wharton Business School. At Wharton, he was the editor of the Wharton Vulgarian. Following his sentence with DLJ, he spent several years working at a private investment fund. In 2001, he co-founded an equity-oriented money management firm, and today manages the firm from a top secret location deep in Vermont. He lives with his wife and two children, and is currently attempting to learn how to produce maple syrup.

Peter Troob graduated from Duke University and Harvard Business School. At Harvard, he was the humor editor for Harbus. After a gross error in judgment caused him to return to the investment banking world at DLJ, he left for the greener pastures of distressed debt investing at a private investment fund. In 2002 he co-founded a debt-oriented money management firm, which he continues to manage today. He lives with his wife and two children outside of New York City, where he can often be seen limping around the neighborhood and complaining about his bad knees.
