Description of  Monkey Business: Swinging Through the Wall Street Jungle

They're investment bankers: They're rich. They're glamorous. They're movers. They're shakers. Or so they hoped. Two young business school graduates start at DLJ, a hot Wall Street firm, grabbing their chance to become lords of the investment universe. There they find themselves part of a horde of overworked and frustrated lemmings who receive super duper paychecks and superhuman abuse. In this high-stakes pressure-cooker, 20-hour days, late night trips to strip clubs, inflated salaries, and mind-numbing work are standard, and high-powered, outlandish personalities are the unforgettable norm. Readers had better strap themselves in for a wild, hilarious, sometimes shocking ride through a land where money is king, and all they ask is that you check your soul at the door.
