About

I started Wallet Street for two reasons.

1) I worked in finance and crypto (Investment Banker at JP Morgan, Operations analyst in hedge fund asset management, and product manager in crypto). I found that even though I was working in the finance industry, even I was struggling with some of the concepts, jargon, and how to apply some of these products to my personal finances.

I found that a lot of my friends (who are very smart and successful in their fields) were also struggling with some of these concepts. And I thought, if there are so many smart, accomplished, hard working people who are struggling to understand this financial jargon and what it means, then that’s a problem. My goal has been to solve that gap!

2) In 2016 I started a weekly email to friends/family while I was in business school about interesting articles and podcasts that I was reading/listening to. I realized that a lot of these recommendations were about what was happening in finance, crypto, and tech.

So I decided to formalize this weekly email into a weekly briefing with an actual website so that others were also interested could subscribe.

I don’t pretend to be an expert. But I do love asking questions and learning new things everyday.

I also know that there are many out there much smarter than me. So please, ask a question or comment on social media, and to the best of my abilities, I promise to be a vessel for those questions and thoughts, while hopefully providing a moment of curiousity, reprieve, and fun along the way.

Sincerely,

Charlotte
