All,
Just noticed this recent trend on major fin-meme pages on Instagram. Seems like bankers don't really appreciate Calibri as a font choice. I was wondering if this is an industry-wide practice? Is there any reason behind this?
Thanks.

Calibri seems to be the official middle market font while Arial is reserved for the big dawgs.
Garamond for outlook all day though.

Calibri (Body) says "I'm too lazy to even pick another font"
Calibri is way easier to read than Arial/Times New Roman/Garamond.
I have no idea what the obsession with Garamond is either, looks like fucking dog shit, drives me nuts.
Bankers don't seem to appreciate good ui/ux the way other industries do, I swear.
Just recently discovered the joys of PPT in Garamond. Anybody seen the documentary "Helvetica?" Great movie.
fan of garamond myself
Serif fonts are generally easier to read if a document is long
