Based on the most helpful WSO content, it seems like the approach to dating and relationships in the finance world isn't as straightforward as some might think. Here's a more nuanced take:

  1. Education and Career Prestige: While attending a prestigious university like Harvard and working at a top firm like Goldman Sachs can certainly be impressive, they don't guarantee success in personal relationships or dating. It's important to remember that personal connections are about more than just a resume.

  2. Work-Life Balance: The grind of becoming an associate often involves long hours, which can make it challenging to find time for dating. It's crucial to manage your time effectively and ensure you're also prioritizing your personal life.

  3. Online Dating: Platforms like Hinge can be a hit or miss, and not getting matches can be due to a variety of factors unrelated to your job. It could be your profile, photos, or how you're presenting yourself.

  4. The Reality Check: Ultimately, the truth is that working in finance doesn't automatically attract romantic partners ("bitches" is not a respectful term to refer to anyone). Building meaningful relationships is about who you are as a person, your values, interests, and how you relate to others.

Remember, it's about finding a balance and showing your genuine self, not just your job title.
