Join the The Republic of United Prospects today!

Hey you there! Are you trying to be an... investment banker? Have you considered... cold calling? Well shit on me and call me a buckeroo! You're doing the things you have to do to eventually.. yknoooo get wealthy or whateverrrrr.. but listen to me here: Have you ever been sitting down and looking through linkedin to see your superiority compared to your big 4 compadres but then you see that random kid who announces to the good graces of god that he got the offer from Bank of America for his IBSA? Hi, I'm Max from the Republic of United Prospects to tell you that: simply don't! There is no amount of absolute horseshit that you must've "endured" that should make you feel obligated to announce to your linkedin Connections (most of which you don't know you just wanted to see that 500+ on your page) that you are now an ~investment banker~. You are not that special, and quite frankly not only do I hate you more for posting it, I never liked you to begin with! If you ever feel like this, join the Republic of United Prospects today! We are located at 35° 55' 44.4'' N 89° 53' 16.8'' W. If you wish to join, please bring your favorite goat for sacrifice Monday the 24th, 2022.
