Can your personal life be used against you if you become a public figure?
IB is a super conservative field and I’m wondering if one were to try to move up the ladder, at what point is your personal life also liable for scrutiny. For example, could you be a successful banker and still be a public figure like a YouTuber or instagram influencer or a music artist? (Ignoring the whole time management realistic stuff)
Let’s say you’re a famous gamer on YouTube for example. You aren’t extremely lewd but you curse sometimes during a gameplay and/or play games like COD/GTA. Can this cost you your job? I guess for women equivalent, what if you were some fitness influencer on Instagram where you’re not onlyfans level naked but wear athletic gear that clearly shows stomach/arms/legs etc.
It’s specific but I’m just wondering if I’m going to have to be a super private person if I want to get anywhere long term in banking/finance.
There's DJ DSol (David Solomon of GS) and @handlerrich (Rich Handler of Jefferies) - though Rich gets some shit for stuff his progeny posts on Insta.
The whole streaming/fitness stuff should be fine. Just don't do anything that gets you thinking, "Doing this would probably get me fired or at least a call from XYZ in HR."
yeah but those guys delved into those spotlights after already being at the top
Exactly— I wouldn’t go as far to call it gimmicky but they were definitely professionals first before a DJ/social media influencer.
