"Always remember to keep riding the storm out"

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/former-currency-strategist-went-150k-144400234.html

From 150K to serving at Starbucks

"A few years ago, Kevin Cronan had it all.

At 38, he was bankrolling $100,000/year (plus a $50K bonus) as a currency strategist for a major Boston investment firm and was this close to dropping $35,000 to rub elbows at an ultra-exclusive country club. "

22 months of severance. I guess we can all relate to that, eh?

I sorta wonder though, if he is any good as a "currency strategist" why he cannot make some money off of investments?
