But Ms. Klausmeyer's
story is not too different
from others.
) "I was embarrassed,"
she said. "I thought it was
my own fault. But that
was wrong. I became a
/- victim of circumstance."

Ms. Klausmeyer recov-
ered the full amount of
) money from the broker,
whom she declined to
reveal as part of the set-
\Alement agreement, and
she continued asking her
neighbor many questions.
"I couldn't believe what

he had done for me," Ms.
Klausmeyer said. "I start-

The field of financial
arbitration is wide open
and growing, Mr.
( Baldinger said. SAS and
his former company are
believed to be the only
national companies of
this kind.
"There's a huge mar-

Marc Baldinger had his
) eyes set on Wall Street.
First, he advised banks
and savings and loans
\ institutions how to offset
/T interest rates and risks.
Then came Wall Street.
For two years, he worked
as a broker for two large

was disillusioned.
"I didn't like the arena,"
he said. "People were dri-

by helping the client to
benefit from their ser-
vices. My background was
> in monitoring the perfor-
mance of the client and
making sure that the
client came first and fore-
most. But greed was
there, and it still is."
