For those of you that don't actually like finance...

Do you think it's actually possible to move up to MD or Partner?

I feel like all the top finance people (or the top people in any profession really) truly enjoy the work. They live to work, not work to live. How else could they deal with all the stress and long hours if they don't enjoy the work?
