After Layoff, a Start-Up

Article Abstract:

After losing his job as an equity analyst with Salomon Smith Barney during the 2002 layoffs on Wall Street, David Riedel launched a Web-based securities research company specializing in analysis of Southeast Asian companies. Beginning with $200,000 in capital, he started Reidel Research Group in his loft apartment in Manhattan, acquiring within a year 6 clients who each pay $60,000 a year for the highly specialized research his firm offers. Due to lower wages offered in Asia, and his ability to utilise the Internet, his revenues exceed overhead costs, and he believes he'll reach his goal of 30 subscribers within a year.
