Former Goldman Options Trader Moonlights as Argentina Taxi King

A woman walks past a taxi stand in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on Thursday, June 12, 2014. After 23 years trading stock options at Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Merrill Lynch & Co. and his own hedge fund, Russell Abrams is piling into his most exotic gamble yet -- as a Buenos Aires taxi empresario. Abrams, 48, has bought 30 taxi licenses since 2008 and plans to buy 1,000 more cabs, for a fleet five times bigger than the closest competitor. Photographer: Diego Levy/Bloomberg via Getty Images
