Synopsis :

The lure of fast money pulls Aaron and Jack into a world driven by high-pressure commission sales where morals and ethics take a backseat to big paydays. Best friends since high school, Aaron and Jack are hired by a brokerage firm that begins the strict training of each broker before they are licensed. Surviving the firm's grueling interview process, harsh cold-calling and aggressive tactics, each takes a different path in an attempt to endure the shark-infested trading floor.

Aaron's natural aptitude with people gives him quick success; however, Jack's first sale eludes him for months-causing marital problems and pushing him to the brink of depression. But as the friends turn into big producers, the firm's partners do more than just take them from the poor house to fancy cars. Aaron and Jack are introduced to a hedonistic lifestyle filled with wild adventures and seedy relationships riddled with dangerous vices.

Inspired by actual events from a 1970s Houston, Texas, boiler room operation, Bond Daddy chronicles the successes, excesses, and failures of men pushed to their limits who end up secretly living abroad, wasting away in prison or mysteriously murdered.

À propos de l?auteur: Jason L. Fowell is a practicing attorney. His co-author, John P. Bott is a licensed securities broker who has worked in the bond market for over thirty years. The two met when John hired Jason as a broker in 1998 and have been good friends since. Each enjoys writing articles in his respective field, so they teamed up to write Bond Daddy. Both John and Jason live in Houston with their families.
