"lakerbanker" Yeti/Hydro Flask type things, moleskins, pencils, folders, duffle bags, t-shirts, vests, etc.

Same, and Nike golf polos, lots and lots of polos. When we don't have clients in the office they are basically my entire wardrobe from May through September.

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.
 

I don't understand what some people love about golf and tech-polos. My company gave me one; I wouldn't prefer that over a 100% cotton pique polo. What do you like about them?

They don't show sweat and dry quickly.
