Genuine Investment Banker Interests

Why do many investment bankers who have been in the financial community for years, have entered ranks of chefs, gardeners, nutritionists, and other endeavors other than financial, in later years?

                       

They often show their true interests when terminated or when they have accumulated sufficient funds. Perhaps they were not interested in finance after all. They wound up doing work outside finance.

                       

You would think they knew enough about finance to have it in their bones to write, talk or teach about investments. To remain with finance in some way.

 But seemingly not. Finance to many is a job that pays more than it ought to, to many who are ill-prepared for the job, other than the right school and connections.

                       

And it shows frequently in Wall Street’s efforts. (See the Earl J. Weinreb NewsHole® comments and @BusinesNewshole at Twitter.)
