Earlier today, the Times reported that former Goldman Sachs employee Greg Smith– he of third place Maccabiah Games finishes and very public breakup letters fame–, along with his newly acquired agent (Paul Fedorko), have been making the rounds at various publishing houses for the last week, pitching a book CNBC’s Kate Kelly says may go for more than $1 million at auction.
It’s still in the early stages, though, and most likely untitled. As Greg, according to Kelly, “regards himself as friend of Wall Street,” let’s do him a solid and come up with some options. The tome is being pitched as a “coming-of-age story, the tale of someone who came into the business with good intentions and sky-high ideals that were ultimately pierced by Goldman’s obsessive focus on making money.” So far all we’ve got are “Why They Don’t Hug Anymore At Goldman Sachs,” “Sixth-Balling Your Clients– A Story Of Goldman Sachs,” and “Den of Thieves: Tripping Over Ethics And My Shoe-Laces At Goldman Sachs.” Surely you can do better.

You mean Ron Burgundy.
Son, he wasn't brave. Brave would've been first to make his concerns known to senior management, and make at least one suggestion of a solution or what he thought was the right way forward and see if management responded positively. Nothing he said/wrote indicates that he went that route. Instead he went for maximum publicity and controversy but not acting as an agent of change. That's not brave. Its opportunistic and fame seeking behavior and this latest news proves that.
