We will meet again in 2016

First!

I'll be showering every morning in buy-side fairy dust and have my chirstmas stocking stuffed with Linkedin (long-ish) stalked emails from little college monkeys begging for internships. My facebook page will be featured on "best of the 2000s" MTV show. Zuckerberg will be wondering how Jesse Eisenberg has more money than him. He'll be the first one Bill Gates lets out of the giving pledge and force him to sign the earning pledge for his creditors.

Till then...

hope to move up in current job!

bearing:

Post in this thread and I will bump it on 1/1/2016 in time for the WSO 10 year anniversary.

Will you still be on these forums? Will you be finally working in finance? Will you finally be done with finance? Will you realize some of your life goals? Will the world end in 4 months making this thread moot? Will Game of Thrones still be the best show on TV? Will a second term Obama force you to leave the country? We will find out 4 years down the road.

As for me hopefully by 2016 I'm still around to bump this thread.

Here's hoping that in 2016 my job title starts with a "C" and I'm still richer than my lawyers.

Here's hoping I'm still honest with myself.

Here's hoping I'm finally happy.

Here's to hoping that I haven't gone off the deep end yet. Oh, and that I'm kicking ass and taking names in b-school.

Here's to hopping I'm applying to Top B-Schools after dominating a rotational somewhere.

It's unlikely I'll be in this industry at that point

Love the concept--although it could be quite scary haha. lets do it!

all of your questions are fine except for the one about game of thrones. of course it will still be the best show on tv-dont be ridiculous.

Here's to finally achieving my post-graduate dream and applying to B-schools....

See you in 2016.

Here's to $1mm in the bank. Don't disappoint me bro.

Here's to me looking at this thread and smiling, absolutely proud and content with everything i've achieved and full of hope for the future.

Here's to being on the buyside...or bschool.

Hopefully in ER, waiting to make my transition to a HF. Skipping any thoughts about b-school because I'm such a rock star.

I just hope I'm still alive then.

Director status.

dictator status

I'm betting that the world is going to end on December 21, 2012. If that doesn't happen, Christmas is gonna be awkward in the Braverman house.

Go Mayans!

I hope I stop making predictions by 2016.

unless the start up takes off (which it very well may, has some good traction already) i'll probably re-app for the next year but we'll see.

and sure are you going to buy the coupe off me haha

Hopefully have some published work under my belt, planning my marriage and plotting my way to VP.

2016... there will be radical changes, and I will probably network/entertain plp all the time and no question I have can be answered here.

Here's to everyone I love still being alive and well, and happy.

By 2016 I'd like to have received a promotion or two in my current job and look to start grad school. More importantly, I'd like myself, family, and friends to still have happy and fulfilling lives.

“Yes, money has been a little tight lately. But, at the end of my life, when I’m sitting on my yacht, am I gonna be thinking about how much money I have? No. I’m going to be thinking about how many friends I have, and my children, and my comedy albums. I mean, I have a yacht, so I obviously did pretty well money-wise.” - Michael Scott

By 2016 I want enough passive income to survive on my standard "bare minimum" (inflation adjusted 15k/year post tax). If I'm still sitting in a cube, upon reading this I have to quit my job.

2016? Bro, the world ends in December.

So if this world doesn't end this december, what's the ratio like between the people who celebrate and the people who cry?

4 years from now I hope to be starting Bschool.

Plans never work out. But here it goes anyway.

In 4 years I will be a USN Surface Warfare Officer aboard a Destroyer or a Cruiser.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology Sloan school of Management Masters in Business Administration candidate

Here's to being halfway through my 2 year IB stint and starting to interview for PE!

Cheers to four more years

Here's to trying to get into IB or at least a stable job industry.

As long as I'm consistently getting laid, global warming doesn't send the price of beer and steak too high, and there is finally a college football playoff I will be a pretty happy guy in 2016.

I'll still be a medical resident. But hope my own algo fund is doing good and have 2 streams of passive income by then.
