SkyBridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci reflected on his working-class upbringing and an awkward first interview at Goldman Sachs, using the experience to encourage young people pursuing opportunities beyond the worlds they grew up in.
Anthony Scaramucci Recalls His Working-Class Roots Earlier this week, Scaramucci shared a video on X describing how unfamiliar he felt when he first entered the world of Wall Street.
He said his father worked in a green uniform that was often covered in grease by the end of the day.
Growing up, Scaramucci said his family did not belong to country clubs or take part in activities such as golf and tennis, leaving him unfamiliar with many of the social norms associated with affluent professional circles.
When he landed his first interview at Goldman Sachs, Scaramucci said he wore a $90 polyester suit, a shiny polyester shirt and a black tie.
