“Sorry mate, not good news.”
And with those 5 words, my twenty year career in Stockbroking came to an end.
When the GFC hit. Almost overnight, the industry collapsed. Stockbroking firms were hit hard, and good workers, with lots of long-term experience were being made redundant.
I was at the crossroads, my son Alex was 18 months old and my 6 figure salary disappeared. My Stockbroking skills couldn’t be quickly transferred anywhere else, and I had no idea what I could possibly do next. Stressful times.
I somehow stumbled across a Mortgage Broking post on LinkedIn for Masters Broker Group. The rest is history.
