Hey all, so I promised a blog post about the initial members of the Sass&P 500 which I am going to deliver, but I also figured I should tell everyone who is reading this site a little more about myself. A brief bio. My name is Jason and I am 42 years old, I grew up on the Jersey Shore. I cut my teeth on Wall Street working in the Corporate Bond Markets at Bank of America as an analyst from 2006-2009 (I physically survived the credit crisis but alas career 1.0 did not). Following this, I spent 5 years in the wilderness learning the art of the sale selling new and used Subaru, Chevrolet, and Jeeps from as far south as Toms River, NJ (my home town) to as far north as Potsdam, NY.

About me: For as long as I care to remember, my friends and my family have called me Sassy (as a nickname, but also a lifestyle). For those who aren't aware, the S&P 500 is the name of the Standard and Poor's index of the 500 largest stocks in the North American markets weighted by market cap. My goal on this blog is to create the Sass&P 500 as I am definitely poor but would like to not be anymore. I am a compulsive user of $cash app. My wallet was lifted off of me in my travels between northern New York and my current home on the Jersey Sho
