The corporate ladder is gone. It's been replaced by a game—and if you don't know the rules, you're going to lose. For nearly twenty years, John D. Romero climbed to the top 1% of U.S. income earners, holding elite financial licenses (Series 7, 66, 24) and advising thousands of clients—from struggling families to $150M net-worth individuals. Then, he walked away. Why? Because the corporate world quietly replaced true leaders with corporate cowards who climb via flattery, credit-theft, and politics instead of excellence.
