The full text is:

My proudest moments in life — getting a full scholarship to go from South Africa to Stanford University, being selected as a Rhodes Scholar national finalist, winning a bronze medal for table tennis at the Maccabiah Games in Israel, known as the Jewish Olympics

I'm assuming the NYT did their homework and checked the writer's credentials - I'm guessing that he was an Executive Director at Goldman, got his bonus and decided that he didn't need to work for them (or perhaps anyone else on the Street) anymore.
