With this post, I go from 9,999 SBs to 10,000 and go from Almost Human to Human

Been on WSO for way too long and realized that I was at 9,999 SB. I've contributed a lot to this forum over my many years here since being a freshman in college to now a grown ass dude in my (technically) late 20s - almost all of my contributions are anonymous but you have probably seen some of the stuff I've posted in the past.

After I left banking I thought I'd never come back to this site and stayed away for a whole year but check in here and there to see if any interesting posts are there and I comment here and there. Over the last year my old posts get SBs here and there and slowly it ticked up to 9,999 SBs and now... 10k

To me this is symbolic because we're all monkeys in banking and, now, with 10k SBs I became "Human." Hopefully this will officially be me graduating from the site and never coming back to another tier ranking the same thing over and over and over but, unfortunately, this site is addicting.
