Kuznetsоv is а pоrtfоlio mаnаger for a large investment firm that encourages its employees to sell proprietary investment products to their clients. Kuznetsov complies with this directive and within a year becomes the firm’s top seller of these investment vehicles. He receives stellar performance reviews and a large bonus.

So, he sharply cuts back on purchasing the firm’s investment products for his clients.

Nick eventually agrees and determines to leave at the beginning of the new year.
