Matt Levine's column/newsletter is one of the things I look forward to each day. His vignettes into finance are consistently interesting, discussed both in depth and understandably to neophytes, and with a dry humor not matched by any other financial journalist. Him talking about DTC settlement is more interesting than anyone else I've seen talking about...pretty much anything in the news.

It's a bit hard to find from the website, so here's the RSS link for everything he writes: http://www.bloomberg.com/view/rss/contributors/matt-levine.r...

His calling is definitely writing. It would have been a shame if he stayed in banking and didn't end up at Bloomberg. I'm not sure how he ended up doing that because there's probably almost no chance he's making more money blogging than working at Goldman, but I'm glad he did.

A family with money. No need. We're all better off for it.

Agreed. I can tell from the headline that it's a Matt Levine article. That's enough to make me rub my hands together with glee.
