Non-Fiction Memoir
The Sandy Weill story is truly one for the ages. Starting
with $30,000 in borrowed cash in 1960, and relying on
uncanny entrepreneurial instincts in the corporate world, he
made himself a billionaire and became one of the most
powerful bankers in the world. After rising to become the
president of American Express, Weill saw his empire crash
and burn. Undaunted, he started over with a second-tier
consumer loan company called Commercial Credit, which
eventually led to his position as CEO and then chairman of
Citigroup. While at Citigroup, Weill delivered an astounding
2,600% return to investors--better than legendary CEO Jack
Welch or investor Warren Buffett during that same period.
But success is never an easy path, and Weill shares all the
high and low points along the way--warts and all. His ascent
to power has been documented by the business media over the
years, but never before has Weill gone on the record,
revealing his brutally honest and unvarnished side of his
astounding life and career trajectory.
