How to become a swaggy investment banker?

I want to swaggy to my peers investment banking how do i do this. This is my thoughts 

- buy M&A books

- list deal rankings on a poster in your room

- read Wall Street journal

- study top 10 M&A

- dress like Gordon gekko

- tell your md he’s king 

- close Big deals

- date hot IG models 

- practice lbo models in your sleep

- skip PE recruitment 

- get early analyst promo 

- return to office 

- do all nighters 

- at each of end of sentence say M&A

anythint I’m missing.
