Behind the deals, strip clubs, and jet-set finance — something was breaking. In this episode of Money and Freedom, I talk to Mar Häusler — a former trader who lived through the 2008 Financial Crisis from the inside. At just 25, she was working 19-hour days in London, trading through market collapse, living on adrenaline and Red Bulls, skiing with the boys, and taking client calls from strip clubs. She made €100 million for the bank — and then walked away. This conversation goes beyond finance. It’s about burnout, golden handcuffs, and the hidden cost of ambition. It’s about being a woman in a world where power still plays by old rules. And it’s about what it really takes to step off the path everyone else applauds. 🔑 In this episode: Trading through the 2008 crash What it was really like to be one of the only women on the floor Red Bulls, Vegas, private jets — and the pressure beneath it all Burnout and the wake-up call Why walking away might be the smartest move you can make 📌 This is part one.
