WSO FAQs

Alright, so I and a number of other people have mentioned having a FAQ for WSO. It has, however, been shot down a number of times. So, I decided to give it a shot myself.

http://www.bruful.com/

I am looking for comments/feedback/questions or whatever. I'm posting this here because I'm starting with I-Banking as a test run to see if it's worth it. The first FAQ is up (I-Banking -> Pay) and I've left the comments open so people can post ideas/updates/feedback or whatever. I'd prefer if you commented here so I know if you have a Gold Star or if you have been around a while and aren't an idiot.

Also, hoping someone from WSO sees it so they can comment as to whether they care or not that I'm doing this.

Thanks for taking a look, hopefully it works out.

I'm aware, but if you notice on the site I'm aiming more for pay/hours/lifestyle, not so much terminology

Good point, I changed that. Did a little more, changed some stuff around, fixed numbers, added resources.

IB Pay: http://www.bruful.com/i-banking/ib-comp/ IB Hours: http://www.bruful.com/i-banking/ib-hours/ IB Companies: http://www.bruful.com/i-banking/ib-companies/

I'm trying to be as specific as possible to leave as little room for misinterpretation. If I'm fkin that up please let me know haha.

You should re-title "IB Companies" and make it Investment Banks or something IB companies is weird.

I previously used the domain for a blog where I'd rip apart politicians for being asshats. Brutum fulmen (shortened to bruful) means essentially an empty threat.
