I think that if my life had turned out any other way and I was working in a bank, I would still feel this way about it, because there's a connection to humanity that to me is really important.](/assets/img/quote-photos/i-was-raised-in-a-country-south-africa-with-a-lot-of-political-turmoil-i-was-p.jpg)
