Career Resources
There are good monkeys, and there are bad monkeys
There are many highly intelligent and socially retarded people who are trying to break into investment banking.
Also, some mentally and socially retarded people trying to break into investment banking.
Also, some relatively normal people trying to break into the financial field. But, the most important is that there are many intelligent, but socially retarded people out there.

Had the potential to be a valuable thread aggregating all the great WSO contributions, but now it has just gone to shit. Carry on
You must be one of those intelligent, but socially retarded people SirTradesALot was talking about...
The number of people planning their career goals at age 15 is much, much higher than you'd think.
People think working finance is some kind of constant orgasm when it really prison gang rape with better pay than F500.
Honestly, I learned about the importance of networking. I was always lazy about networking in undergrad, and figured if I just aced my classes, I'd be fine in my job search. WSO monkeys inspired me to actually reach out to people and gain an advantage that way.
I find blastoise's posts to be very informative, especially his pokemon one. hehe
There's always somebody better than you on here.
The most valuable thing I learned was that I should have found this site about 3 years before I actually did...Having done my undergrad studies at a non-target state school with absolutely no exposure to high finance, my window was small enough as it was (and I know it's not completely closed yet, but just saying...). Finding this site after my junior year was over didn't do much for my prospects, to say the least...
Most valuable thing I learned on WSO:
Have a plan. Be prepared, be realistic, be decisive.
Always be ready, don't settle just yet, and keep knocking down doors until you get what you want.
