And it all happened after he got fired at the age of 39.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is his story, told in his own words and in his own candid style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAfter working his way through college and graduating from Harvard Business School, Bloomberg landed on the bottom rung of a Wall Street firm and worked his way up to partner. But in 1981, he was forced out of the firm. With an idea for computerising financial data, Bloomberg started his own company. And, since personal computers barely existed, he built his own. Specially designed for Wall Street traders and analysts, the Bloomberg Terminal revolutionised the world of finance. Under Bloomberg's leadership, his company grew rapidly, playing David to the Goliaths of finance and media—and making Bloomberg one of the world's wealthiest men.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eBloomberg by Bloomberg\u003c\/i\u003e offers an intimate look at the creative mind and driven personality behind the Bloomberg brand.
