Parents Networking

Streetluck:

" personally know tons of kids who have gotten into BBs because their dad knew someone, or their mom knew someone. Would they have gotten into BBs without their parents? Questionable. Now when they are applying for PE jobs, should Blackstone look into their history and see exactly HOW they got their job even though they consider them to be good enough to work there? Guess what.. They don't"

Life is unfair, these things happen, i know these cases too... Just accept it, life is unfair :some people in Africa live in poorness all their lives..

The only way to happyness is to work your ass off , build a super cv and develop your social skills and it will bring you to the place you want to work..

I agree with you somehow but I would tell you that Folks are pretty open when you ask questions about IB. You will be surprised to see how they are willing to help.
