Summary:
"I wrote this book to tell a story. A story of a five year journey through the center of financial power in Washington. A true story from my eyes and ears. Of what I saw and what I experienced, what was said and who said it. Much of it is serious, some of it funny, a bit of it is revealing about the way decisions are made at the highest levels that affect the lives of each one of us. It is a story of real events that took place during the later portion of the twenty-teens: 2014-2019. It is a story of real people, many of whom are wonderful, some are dear to me, a few underhanded, most of them important in more or less obvious ways to how the U.S. and global economy are run. I am telling this story to entertain readers who may wonder what it is like to be in the center of political power over financial affairs in Washington and, occasionally in London, Brussels, Basel and Hong Kong. I trust readers will enjoy the ride. I hope many will. I hope so because along the way, I have a more important message to impart. The message is that something big is going on all around us. Something bigger than one person's accidental and quixotic experience through the halls of power. It is a change that comes not once in a generation, but perhaps once in a millennium."-- Provided by publisher.
