He was later educated at Union College in Schenectady, graduating with a degree in political economy.

He started at the company covering news in finance, including Mergers and Acquisitions, IPOs and the stock market. Years later he became the company’s Global Managing Editor for Corporate Finance.

In 2009, he decided to leave “Fast Money” due to his strong feelings of how the government was handling the financial crisis during 2008.

In June 2009, Ratigan started a new show at MSNBC entitled “Morning Meeting”, that later became “The Dylan Ratigan Show”, and one of the highest rating programs of the network, despite not being broadcast in primetime.
