According to the NY Post the prominent investment bank CEO told attendees at a
gay-advocacy leadership conference, “Out on The Street,” at Goldman’s
headquarters yesterday that he understood what it was like to be on the
outskirts.
“And I think that on a personal level I always felt a little
bit outside, myself, in a lot of ways. . . . There’s a lot of people in a lot
of circumstances that make somebody feel that way,” Blankfein told an
auditorium of Wall Streeters. “Even in
the context of Goldman Sachs, I was a sales trader in an investment bank, I was
a salesman in the context of trading. I was in a funny asset class —
commodities — in a firm that’s more known for a securities kind of business,”
he noted.
