Her high school classmate didn't think she had enough of what it took to get along. Now, will it be the
revenge of the nerdette;
She’s about to become one of the most influential financial leaders in the world, but a classmate who sat in front of Janet Yellen at Brooklyn’s Ft. Hamilton HS says he was “shocked” at her career path.
“I didn’t think she had a passion for economics,” recalled Ron Vincent, a former Wall Street guy who took the same economics class as the incoming Federal Reserve Bank chair and who now heads Hi Investors Capital.
“I was shocked. She was in the psychology club.”
Now, he added in awe, “She’s going to be the world’s most powerful woman.”
Passion may be overrated.
