At 21 years old, Gary Stevenson joined Citibank as its youngest trader. Three years later, he became the bank's most profitable trader by predicting there would be an increase in economic inequality. He went from staying in his parents' two-bed terrace in east London to earning millions. But it didn't feel right making money by betting on disasters. Gary quit his job, leaving the City to campaign on the issue of wealth inequality. He tells James why our obsession with money is destroying the things that matter. Gary's new book, The Trading Game: A Confession is out on 5th March.
