And the first money I earned to that buying a little cheaper tickets "MMM", and sell a little more expensive. Then on Varshavke were very long queues, and people are happy to buy and sell quickly. I think there were five exchangers.

In 1995, he was educated economist at the Higher School of Economics. A year later became the manager of the branch "Cheryomushki" bank "Russian credit". In this position he remained until 2000.
