About

a couple of my best investments
About.me Scott Andrew Bell.
For nearly ten years I was an advisor, working for one of the giant {even prestigious} Wall Street firms.
Boxes were checked: Management track? Check. Partner for one of the largest teams in LA? Check.
Did I mention I am an Eagle Scout?
I didn’t see it all at once. It took time to piece together the whole picture, but in the end, I realized ‘it’ was rotten to the core. So, in 2008 I left the big Wall Street firm to create something different; a new company called Gross Domestic Product, Inc. And, on April 1, 2012 we launched our latest effort, myGDP.com. You can learn more about my business at Managed Assets.

What is I heart Wall Street?
I heart Wall Street is a collection of observations, critiques, & insights into an industry I’ve loved since I was a kid.
It was the late 1980′s & my godfather somehow ended up with a bootlegged copy of Trading Places. I was still in elementary school but allowed to watch parts of it & there was a scene, toward the end of the movie when Dan Akroyd tells Eddie Murphy what he’s about to witness walking onto the trading floor of the exchange. I thought it was one of the greatest pep-talks I’d ever witnessed in my entire life. I didn’t even know what it all meant, but, right there, I knew I wanted in.
