Nathaniel revels in monetary dealings. Over a sixty year time span, Nathaniel energizes the growth of Cedar Rapids, Iowa but his heart holds a secret longing for a Wall Street career. While credible considerations stand between him and his goal, namely Midwestern family roots and a strong local business climate, trepidation and then advanced age swallow his dream. Alex pushes for Wall Street and fails. Satisfied with the chance, Alex closes the door to his dreams until Fate pitches an opportunity fifty miles from Wall Street. Alex wins the job but later loses a corporate battle. He lands on Wall Street where everyday reality eclipses all of his imaginings until his wife suffers at the hands of the Wall Street lowlifes and Alex must face the potential price for his success.
