Back Street's Back, ALRIGHT!

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.
 

I usually part on my left and pull to my right. I think generally that’s been more traditional for men but really it just matters where your cowlick is/what’s more comfortable. Just look clean to either side is fine I think.

My dad found a study that women found men with hair swept to the left to be less attractive (and even perceived as weird) than with hair swept to the right. He told me when I was 12, been paranoid since

 

Any thoughts on clipper haircuts?

Not gangster-like skin short, speaking of a decent length like 1-2 cm. At the end of the day there’s quite a few bald people around, so I think a good clipper haircut is still alright.
