How do I become Sigma
I've been taking a look into the life-paths our WSO members, specifically the highly esteemed members (aka SIgmas) have taken, both during undergrad and post-grad, leading them to achieve the fabled Sigmaship. It's clear that banking and finance are the royal roads to such an elite status, where you get all the chicks, money, power, and freedom, but I'm super curious to hear everyones path.
Personally I have been mewing, jelking, munting, figging, and nothing has seemed to be working. I hit the gym thrice a week (chest, back/bis, legs), I use the towel method and chew mastique gum, but nothing has been seeming to get me an internship at a top Investment bank, I am not sure what is left for me to do.
Could the old-school traders, quant wizards, or even those chill beasts in corporate strategy share a glimpse into their mystical journey? Were there secret coffeechats, underground wine nights at Little Saint James, or even company bathroom ski trips that lead you all to become Sigma.
Please tell me your story and let me and many other aspiring Sigmas learn.

Good questions OP, but I’m not entirely sure anyone here is really qualified enough to advise you on this. Would recommend bringing it up in your next interview (to MDs and above) to really find the answers you’re looking for.
A few ways to exhibit Sigma demeanor include engaging in High-T activities such as the following:
It is best to avoid Low-T activities such as:
You are obviously confusing Alpha and Sigma
Can I just skip alpha and go straight to Sigma? One year mba?
The tiktokers have infiltrated WSO
Bitches, drugs, money, and patagonia vests
Nah this is kind of funny though

I'm sure I could waste 30 minutes googling for this, but I'm curious - wtf is a sigma apart from the sum function on excel
Think Sigma = Patrick Bateman + David Goggins + Liver King
