Does Height Matter (For Guys) in Front Office?
We all know that people subconsciously look to the tallest man in a boardroom or business environment as the most assertive, confident, competent or experienced individual, so how much does height really matter for guys who want to succeed in a client-facing high finance environment? There's a reason we barely have any presidents under 6ft.
In my opinion, 5'10 or 5'11 is the cutoff in high finance if you want to be taken seriously as a guy. Given that most bankers you'll be surrounded by will come from wealthy backgrounds (meaning they have access to the best nutrition and their parents tend to be taller on average), any guy under 5'10 is going to be seen as a midget and not taken seriously by clients, colleagues or superiors.
However, the optimal height is probably around 6'4-6'5 to have the best chance of success. Any taller and your height will be distracting/overtly intimidating, yet ideally you're still noticeably taller (by ~2 inches) compared to other guys in high finance, distinguishing yourself as the physical "leader" in any group setting.

This is such a dumb thread. Bloomberg is 5'7. Carlos Slim is 5'7, so is THE Jeffrey Bezos. Short kings have a chip on their shoulder that drives them to success.
Putin is 5’7
Jesus was 5’0”.
Any male under 5’6 shouldn’t even consider a career in any business field. However, There’s tons of opportunities for people of such height in growing fields such as being a jockey or one of the seven dwarfs. I’m 6’2 btw
Are we considering schlong length tho? Definitely a factor in terms of getting respect and establishing dominance. Personally, if I see my MD has a massive bulge, best believe my work is gonna be top tier as opposed to the beta MD with nothing to show. Just my .02 tho
The text of your post speaks to height but the subtext of your post speaks to lack of length in another department.
Only insecure plebs argue about height, the true metric to base your gigachadness off of is index to ring finger ratio. If you know you know
fellas, is it gay if my index and ring finger are the same length
Most Prestigious Ways to Judge a Man's Character:
Top Tier:
-By his Zip Code
-By his vacation house's Zip Code
-The make of his bit loafers
-His vintage watch collection
-Cash in Bank (not to be confused with Net Worth)
-Chill-to-Pull ratio (how much time does he spend chilling with the boys versus having sex with women)
Middle Tier:
-Penis size
-Height
-Technical "on paper" net worth
-Bench press max out
-Time it takes to run a mile
Bottom Tier:
-How he treats his family and subordinates
-Whether or not he's a good father
-Generosity, kindness and honesty
-Intelligence and creativity (gay)
I am 5'6" and I just go running around the office like a lecherous little goblin licking other womens tiddies while yelling "I'm tom cruise".
