The "Borat of Wall Street", Amit Chatwani chose a smart career in blog land.  His site Leveraged Sell-Out, one of my favorite banker blogs, is a look at the insides of what it means to be a young banker living in New York (he draws on the experiences of all of his friends).  This week, Amit has unleashed his first book based around his ever-popular site. "Damn It Feels Good To Be A Banker, And Other Baller Things You Only Get To Say If You Work On Wall Street" is a must read for anyone working in finance, anyone that knows anyone working in finance, or anyone that wants reassurance that their job outside of finance was the right decision.

Below, some of my favorite excerpts from the book and a photo guide to a banker's evolution:

"As any equestrian worth her jodhpurs can tell you, the relationship between a woman and her horse transcends the boundaries of sport." [W]

This Saturday, Steven Klein will play host once more, along with Gwyneth Paltrow and MADONNA (!) at a benefit for the Amaryllis Farm Equine Rescue.  It will be held at Steve Kleins' Watermill center and there will be a performance from Olympic Rider Robert Dover.  Information on purchasing tickets can be found on the invite below, though this event has probably been sold out days ago.
