A 28-year old Manhattan investment banker has died after an apparent suicide, police sources said. Kenneth Bellando, who worked at Levy Capital since January, was found dead on the sidewalk outside his East Side building on March 12, after allegedly jumping from the sixth-story roof, sources said.
Bellando, a former investment bank analyst at JPMorgan, is the son of John Bellando, chief operating officer and chief financial officer at Condé Nast. His brother, John, a top Chief Investment Officer with JPMorgan, works on risk exposure valuations.

Amazingly this is still continuing. Again though, I want to warn people, do your research. See how many bankers kill themselves every year and compare it to what is happening now. It’s a fact that bankers kill themselves. It is a high risk, high stress job. Do your own research. But isn’t it very interesting that while these bankers are offing themselves (or being killed off) that Russia is pushing the world to the brink right now? I mean its like the 1930s all over again minus the depression. Stay tuned..
