what do old finance business people talk about at dinner?

Hey guys. Kind of a dumb question since i'm a smooth brain student, but I was just wondering what would conversation among, say, some 40 year old + senior PE partners / HF PMs / BB MDs / industry execs / other relevant, revolve around? Like, if they were dining at some fancy restaurant for 2 hours, what would the conversation be about? thx
