"FMFdoc" The exit ops for commercial banking answer was very helpful. Would there be more or the same opportunities with JPMorgan’s CCB&SI? They say it’s like a hybrid investment/commercial bank.

Corporate banking is a great hybrid between CB and IB, and one of the best places to build a long career, IMO.

 
"Monkeys at the Gate" Bit too political sometimes IMO, but apart from that one of the best AMAs we had so far. Good job!

Do you know what the second A stands for in AMA? They asked, I answered. I did appreciate all the hatemail from the 21 yr olds who think they've got the world figured out and were triggered by any political view left of center. :)

As one of those former 21-year olds, let me say that your entire world view will change after you start working, experience gains/loss, travel, and have a family.
