Is this question serious?
yes
thanks for the insight..
What did you expect man? It is common knowledge that the lifestyle and work hours are much better in corp fin. It doesn't take more than a few searches in the search box on this site or Google to figure that out.
If that is what matters to someone, Corp Fin is a good place to go.

alright then, interesting. I care for having a high quality and fun life and having the money to do so
