JPMorgan CEO recalls his Citigroup firing: Shares meeting with mentor Sandy Weill
JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon discussed two major life events. His 1998 Citigroup dismissal reshaped his career path significantly. His youngest daughter asked if the family would now have to “sleep on the streets”. A near-fatal heart emergency in 2020 brought him peace. Dimon invested heavily in Bank One after leaving Citigroup. This bold move led to his leadership at JPMorgan Chase.
