What is life. Is it just finance until death?
As I eat my thanksgiving leftover, I can't but ponder how my would currently be without WSO.
So, prior to all this I was having a great time in college. Partying, unprotected sex with random sorority girls until my friend told me he was going into IB at BOA. He introduced me to this world and told me what WSO was and i've dreaded life ever since. I am now addicted to checking WSO daily, worrying about my future 24/7 only making new friends if they can help with my career advancement.
I realized how bad it is now because all I care about is making more money. I view careers other than finance, tech, big law, doctors as a useless career. I'm already thinking about how I can send my kids to le rosey and i am only 22. I guess I grew up upper middle class. lived in a million dollar home which I now consider the minimum and don't realize how major that is.
Just received a FT at a BB so I guess life is good since I stressed to be here, so now what next. I don't know if I'm having an existential crisis because all i've been worrying about is how I can be rich asf and that my parents are not rich enough. To put in context my parents just bought a $2.5 million home which is great my friends think my family is rich I don't think so. I think we are average and cant help comparing myself to my friends whose having an home in the aspen or in Greece.
If anyone ever experience this how did you beat this?
I actually did use to care about prestige and money or any of that until I found out about WSO and now thats all I think about
This might be wrong, but I don't think you become the 1% of humanity because you make top $. Or is everyone's self worth tied to their net worth?
You're dense; he is talking about the tax bracket based on income, not like saying best 1% of people on Earth
Holy shit, your parents just got a $2.5 million dollar home and you are not rich. Fuck people like you that have zero perspective and had everything handed to them
2.5 million is not a lot bro. and how how do I have no perspective? I had to work for everything and not sure if I even have a safety net like a trust.
People who grew up in $2.5 million dollar homes and still have the gall to say "I had to work for everything" desperately need to get punched in the mouth for the first time in their life

OP boutta be slapped with like 3 child support lawsuits in a few years
why?
1) It was a joke, but I guess that's my fault for expecting someone as tone deaf as you to get that
2) "unprotected sex with random sorority girls"
pull out game is immaculate sir
You'll be pullin out of the babies r us parking lot soon
You have a sad life. Not because of your situation, but because of your perspective and mindset.
Man you're the absolute worst kind of human
wow just going to say I completely resonate with your entire post. Everything from checking WSO daily, worrying about future 24/7, can i see these friends having some high-powered position in the future, only caring about making money, careers that are acceptable (fin/tech/law/doctor), sending future kids to boarding school (also seriously thought about le rosey), million dollar home not being enough (always news about some BX partner buying some penthouse suite in nyc for like 40mm), etc.
Also still in college as well
... I guess this is normal ?
Did you just respond to your own post???
i'm not OP, different
no

I feel the same way, sort of... I didn't grow up rich, or even upper middle class, and I've worked shit jobs through high school/college. I've always dreamed of being successful, and once I found out about IB and WSO, all I can focus on is trying to break in from a non-target school. I don't have a trust fund or an MD father, but I'm hoping I can make it anyways. So I sorta see what you're saying
