Beal Bank? I am more interested in the story of how he started the bank. How can an individual with the government's blessing can start a bank like that. Don't they need huge funds and deposits and a million financial and security hurdles? Where did he get it all?

- nsrivast 18y agoPoker inculcates many of the skills needed for finance, and if you're good it can simply be a profitable investment.

A classical interview question / challenge would be to invent a new card game and ask the interviewees to devise an optimal strategy for that game.
