Succession bankers

Succession really showed the value of CFOs and bankers last night. As Tellis racked up big fees with; "Uh this is exciting guys!" and "Well, I don't have the precise composition of our consortium and, obviously, DD, but we know the asset and I think we can get there". 

Tellis closed the big deal at the end unlike Larid who was trying to give last minute advice on the Yacht in season 2.

As for Karl, he just wants to stay out of everything and finally get the big payday as the GoJo deal closes.  

What you all think of how the show deals with bankers, would Laird or Tellis really match some of the MDs out there?
