While I was growing up, one of my very good friends lived right across the street from my house. Ed was a really sharp guy who eventually went on to head up a foreign exchange trading desk at a major bank. We became friends when I moved into the neighborhood at the age of six. During Ed's junior year in college, he was one of a handful of students who were selected for a work - study program at a bank in Tokyo , Japan . Upon his return he shared with me the exciting world of foreign exchange trading and a food he had grown very fond while living in Tokyo ... sushi. "How could anybody eat raw fish?" I asked and Ed began to explain that once you acquire a taste for it, it grows on you.
