What I Learned On Wall Street, Why Real Estate is the Best Investment documents the experiences of Lex Levinrad over a 15 year career on Wall Street. His story begins in a "boiler room" brokerage firm in Chicago and follows his experiences as a trader, registered options principal, and branch manager. The story illustrates what it was like to be a stockbroker during the years 1996 through 1999, while consistently being one of the largest commission generators at his brokerage firm. Levinrad details his experiences recovering from the technology stock crash of 2000. The story continues as he becomes a real estate investor in Florida and then describes his experience buying wholesale real estate. Ultimately, Levinrad explains why he feels that real estate is the best investment. This book shows you what you need to know when dealing with a financial advisor and why these individuals do not always act in your best interest. It also clarifies why it's sometimes better to have a money manager or financial planner instead of a financial advisor or stockbroker.
