Mr. Honeycutt, like Michael R. Bloomberg, had grown up in Medford and moved away for college, seeking a job in finance. Mayor Bloomberg, recognizing a kindred spirit, offered the young man his card; weeks later, in fall 2009, he greeted Mr. Honeycutt at City Hall and arranged an introduction to an executive at a major Wall Street bank.
