That's one long ass video...
its worth it, imo
Please provide cliffs on video, can't access it at work..
Pretty crazy stuff
This guy's father has fucking mentat eyebrows. Amazing.
This man used to quite famous on our side of the Atlantic... The video is great by the way, if you have time - watch it!
Really interesting. Things like this makes me think sometimes.
Interesting video. He's right about the money, though. I'm positive anybody who works in banking is in it, primarily, for the notion that there will be a big compensation. Nobody will tell you they will still do what they do in IB if they only make 30k a year.
Some people are frank. An alumni came and gave us a presentation and he said, "I would not pursue this career if it were not for the money. I mean, straight out of undergrad, what jobs pay 100k? Mine does."
Excellent point, props to him for being honest.
My point exactly. I'm willing to bet that's why most people are in IB.
Has it ever been even remotely up for debate that the primary reason for working in banking is the money?
sounds like equity sales, i only watch a little of it
