Chances are, you haven't been making the best investing decisions. Why? Because that's how Wall Street wants it.

"The always irreverent author of the Reformed Broker blog has written an excellent narrative that shares all of your brokers dirty little secrets. Much like Michael Lewis' Liars Poker captured the essence of 1980s institutional Wall Street, Browns' Backstage Wall Street recreates the boiler room retail brokerage culture of the 1990s and early 2000s in vivid color."

—FORBES

"With a smirk, a lashing wit, and an appropriate irreverence, Joshua Brown gives voice to what all investment professionals are—or should be—secretly thinking."

—MICHAEL SANTOLI, Barrons columnist

"The pages of this book are filled with colorful exposés of misconduct in the way Wall Street presents and sells itself (and its financial products offerings!). . . . Run, don't walk, to read Browns chronicles of deception [perpetrated by] those wonderful folks on Wall Street, who nearly bankrupted the world's financial system a few short years ago."

—DOUGLAS A. KASS, Seabreeze Partners Management, Inc.

"Everything you've ever read about Wall Street is a total lie. Everyone is lying to you every day. Until you read this book."

—JAMES ALTUCHER, Formula Capital and author of I Was Blind but Now I See

"Joshua wants Wall Street to be awesome. You can feel it every day on his amazing blog and in this great book. He is happy to shout when Wall Street drives him crazy. I guarantee you will enjoy this book that describes the action behind the business of Wall Street and his own experiences along the way."

—HOWARD LINDZON, Lindzon Capital and founder of StockTwits

Joshua Brown may be the funniest writer on finance today, but Backstage Wall Street could make you cry more than laugh.
