My Top Five Favorite Characters On The Show Billions

  1. Bobby Axelrod – I have to go with the main character on the show as my favorite character in the series. Bobby Axelrod is no doubt a genius, and more than that is a pure finance, politics and sales/investment genius, and is a practical business deity! Within the show, Robert Axelrod consistently pulls off some really difficult financial things, like calculating interest rates in his head, reading and filing 10-K reports, making sure to always hedge risk in each one of his trades, manipulating the market and getting involved in insider trading, and much much more.
  2. Wendy Rhodes – The powerful and esteemed therapist of Bobby Axelrod, Wendy Rhodes is the loyal companion and therapist to the King, Robert Axelrod, with just one caviat, she is married to the U.S. Attorney, his sworn enemy and the man who is trying to take him down!
  3. Mike “Wags” Wagner – Bobby Axelrod’s best friend, business associate, and long time attack dog, Robert Axelrod used Wags in just about every single episode in a variety of fashions, from deal making, to helping him pick stocks, to mitigating office politics and serving as a controller, and even in taking a leadership role in Axe’s absence.
  4. Ben Kim – The boy genius analyst, and basically the “new guy,” at the firm, as a shy nerdy analyst that is probably one of the smartest people in the room aside from Taylor, his demeanor and performance in the office actually reminds me a lot of myself in my own banking career! Love him and his character!
  5. Lara Axelrod – While she has very mixed feelings from the audience behind her as a character, I personally like her a lot, and I think that many episodes in the later seasons of the series show that she is Axelrod’s one true wife, and that she is definitely his best partner, even next to Wendy.
