NSFW Episode 36: Finance Chicks - Sort Of

It had to happen sooner or later. Midas and I tried to have a reasonable discussion about women in finance until he went off on a tangent that literally left me speechless. Be warned: this one is definitely NOT SAFE FOR WORK:

Hahaha. Eddie- great as always. Midas- that was an instant classic performance. I've seen a number of hot girls get into finance for no other reason then being hot. No relevant background or stellar job performance, just hot. In fact, I know an attractive girl that was hounded to come to an interview at a solid firm. When she finally ceded their request she was asked a softball finance question and started to freak. The Managing Director said not to worry and asked if he could get her some water. Of course she got the job. Gender inequality seems like a joke to me. If it exists, it exists to the detriment of the guys. The pendulum has swung the other way.

 

I'm just going to call it now... wait until we get the female perspective here and this will turn into a giant shitshow... I'm getting in before the storm.

 

Great job guys. Stellar rant Midas.

Regards

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that MMM hasn't been laid in quiet sometime.. Even if you are picking harmless fun at women in finance, it's 8th grade overkill on the "Get in the kitchen, make me a sandwich and suck my dick while you're at it" kind of shit.
