Im a freshman currently preparing for IB recruiting, but one of my biggest dreams, especially as a kid, was owning my own porta potty business. Currently I’m planning on using IB as a way to accumulate money so that I can bootstrap my idea. In the case that this all doesn’t work out, how difficult is it to return back to IB? What about other finance roles?
