So how's life going?
Alright, so I'm new to the whole business/ finance industry, and extremely new to this forum . I'm actually only a high school sophomore, a (already) money-hungry 15 year old. Anyways, although I still have time, I'm really thinking about future careers. I don't really have a "passion", so right now I'm only considering money and job satisfaction.
My question goes to all current, past, or aspiring Wall Street bankers. How do you like your life? Do you enjoy your career? Do you have regrets? Is the money really there?
After a little research, I have come to the conclusion that investment banking is a tiring profession, and additionally comes with a negative reputation from the public and media (although there's positive prestige to the title as well). Are the 100 hour weeks worth it?
And before you question me, yes it is too early for me to even think about it. I have basically no knowledge on anything financial. But again, after a little research I have found that a "target" university is an essential. And to get into these target schools, it's all about high school performance.
