Praise for The Way of the Wall Street Warrior
“As someone who has worked on Wall Street my entire career, I can definitively say that The Way of the Wall Street Warrior has some of the best tips for getting ahead. The humor and stories make for a fantastic read and I strongly encourage anyone at the start or mid-career to read this book and refer to it frequently as they try to climb the corporate ladder. You won't regret it!”
Tina Longfield, Managing Director, Trust Securities, formerly SunTrust Robinson Humphrey
“One of the funniest insider books I've read about Wall Street since Liar's Poker! Dave's brilliant and transparent guide to survive and thrive is a must-read for anyone trying to break into finance or any high-powered industry.”
Chris McGowan, Former Managing Director at Madison Dearborn, former banker at Morgan Stanley, and now Adjunct Professor at the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business
“Dave's book is a great read for anyone looking to get a leg up on their career. He gives practical advice you can only learn from the school of hard knocks in a funny, anecdotal way. Whether you're starting your career or rising up the ladder, Dave will give you invaluable pointers that I'm sure will put you over the top.”
Joanne Chen, General Partner of Foundation Capital and former Jefferies banker
“The Way of the Wall Street Warrior proves to be essential, not just for those seeking to conquer Corporate America—but for anyone who's ever dared to believe in themselves and their dreams. Invaluable and inspiring.”
Vivek J. Tiwary, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Fifth Beatle: The Brian Epstein Story
“Few leaders blend deft business acumen, cultural savvy, inclusion, and heart as Dave Liu does. It's why he's uniquely positioned to pen The Way of the Wall Street Warrior, a rare multi-hyphenate guide to advancing one's career in both established and novel environments. Dave gives you direct, practical advice to achieve your goals with levity—particularly if you're a traditionally mis- or underrepresented leader.”
Bing Chen, President and Co-Founder of Gold House
“Do you want to know how to succeed on Wall Street (or Main Street) and pee your pants from laughter? Then The Way of the Wall Street Warrior is a MUST read. It's loaded with practical tips, strategies, philosophies, insider secrets, and plenty of off-color humor to entertain you. Dave Liu is the classic Malcolm Gladwell “Outlier”—the true David who beat Goliath. He shares critical lessons to help you win on Wall Street (or any cutthroat profession) when the deck is stacked against you and then prepares you for living the good life.”
Brian Flynn, Co-Founder of FounderPartners and former Morgan Stanley banker turned serial tech entrepreneur and investor
“I've had the pleasure of knowing Dave from when he started his career in investment banking as a young, superstar first-year analyst. His book is a terrific read, full of smart insights, and practical, actionable advice. Delivered in Dave's inimitable style, The Way of the Wall Street Warrior is witty, entertaining, and rich with content and good ideas.”
Michael Henkin, Former Senior Managing Director of Guggenheim Securities
“Dave provides an entertaining take on a serious topic, what really happens when you finally ‘make it’ and get that first job on Wall Street. He opens your eyes to the way the finance world actually works, with a funny but realistic portrayal, not what you get in Hollywood movies or even in the fanciful presentations on college campuses. For all of you whose family didn't come to America on the Mayflower, you owe it to yourself to read this book.”
Juan Alva, Managing Director of Pelham S2K and former Goldman Sachs banker
“If you want to skip ahead and condense 10 years of figuring out how to succeed in Corporate America into one year, read this book. Adopt the wisdom and insider secrets in this book and you'll blow past your peers. Don't play the same game as everyone else. Learn from those who have succeeded and you'll become your own unicorn.”
Edward Fu, President of Happy Masks and former Jefferies banker
“It took me ten years working for Dave to extract a fraction of the knowledge so artfully (and humorously) condensed in The Way of the Wall Street Warrior. I wish I'd had this long prior to ever signing up for Finance 101, but lucky, astute readers can glean decades of insight within. Far from an edgier, funnier Super Saturday prep read, The Way of the Wall Street Warrior should be read, re-read, and frequently consulted as a living career bible—whether you're 19 or 49—for anyone interested in making it big in any career.”
Paul Clausing, Managing Director at Fluential Partners and former Jefferies banker
“Dave and I go way back. Think high school in Taipei at an American school. Both culturally and socioeconomically, Dave's background provides a unique and compelling narrative. His personality and humor help take a complex subject and turn it into an entertaining read! Dave is an Asian American who spent time in both Hong Kong and Houston. So think Asian with a British accent and southern twang!”
Spencer Wang, Former Chief Investment Officer of Seasons Capital and former Credit Suisse and Salomon Brothers banker
“This book's irreverent humor will keep you laughing throughout, but the lessons inside should be taken very seriously. I've spent half my career in finance, the other half in tech, and Dave's practical, no-BS advice on what it actually takes to succeed and rise through the ranks is broadly applicable to any high-powered, competitive industry.”
Eric Hu, Director of Corporate Development at Twilio and former Jefferies banker
