While the post seems ridiculous at first glance, there actually is a small portion of bankers to whom some parts of what OP wrote actually applies. Personally I enjoy the lifestyle a lot. I'm not into bars or hookups, but I do appreciate how my job keeps me busy and always on my toes; it forces me to prioritize my health and relationships whereas a lax 40 hr/week job might encourage me to slump into laziness/sleeping unnecessarily late/putting things off. It's all about balance IMO

 

Unless your sarcasm is going over my head (quite possible), I feel the need to interject that working 70+ hours a week and not getting roughly 8 hours of sleep is quite detrimental to your health. It just doesn’t show as much yet cause we’re young.
