I got turned on to finance while stumbling through my MBA at the University of Western Ontario. I suddenly found myself reading Report on Business right after the Sports section (go figure). When it came to finding a job, I got lucky. There weren’t many openings, but Richardson Greenshields was looking for a stock analyst and I fit the bill. The director of research at the time, Chuck Winograd, was a Western alumnus (tick), sports fanatic (tick), and the position was in my hometown of Winnipeg (tick). I got the job without combing my hair.
Regards,
Don
