I'm actually serious. You can look through my post history.

I just never understood how an Investment Banker is married, yet alone has kids. Where do they get time?

You've never heard of quickies?

But who do they do it with? I can't imagine they find people during their lunch break.

Once I did bad and that I heard ever. Twice I did good and that I heard never.

Interesting. Do most IB people marry their clients?

There's a big difference between an IB analyst/associate and VP/MD. Analyst is in the office averaging 80 hours/week. MD might be on the road 2 days, in the office for 10 hours/day for 3 days, and/or work from home some of the time. Analysts usually don't have families, and if they do, it can definitely be stressful.

Also, lots of higher-level folks on WS have relationship issues, probably more so than your average American.

Ah this explains it. So people don't start getting relationships until they are 30's and 40's? But I guess by then they are millionaires so they could just retiree and be hardcore family oriented.

Glad we closed the case on this conundrum.

Let's be glad dudes like this are out there, brosephs. If the applicant pool for IB had the same professional acumen as our OP does on this topic, we'd all be sipping mai tai's on a beach right now.

So go find yourself a few people to "engage" in "sexual activity" with. The competition is not nearly as difficult as it is in your career.

in it 2 win it

Are you trying to imply something?
