Will I get hired by elite firms if I do not have the traits of a cocky frat boy? I know this might seem to be a ridiculous question, but I have seen countless threads describing Wall Street analysts in this manner. I do, however, have the competitive drive. I guess my real question is: Are the majority of investment bankers that are hired Type-A, douchey, bros or are there some average joes. I get the mentality that firms only hire individuals that are overly eloquent and loquacious. I mean, all the ibanker wannabes in my school are like this, but I am not. I guess I'm more like Charlie Sheen from Wall Street/ the guy from Boiler Room than I am Patrick Bateman. Maybe I should look into a diff. career? Honest answers please..

Decent troll post. For analyst positions best to be a nerd.
Get in touch with me. I can help you overcome your problem.
In my humble opinion, Patrick Bateman was not a "frat boy."
If you want some bros to teach you how to bro out then you have come to the right place bro
Start playing lax, drinking Four Loko for breakfast and chasing freshman girls... You'll find your inner bro... And when you do you'll never want him to leave
judging by that picture, i would say your a pretty cocky ass
You are completely off base. Do honestly think a alpha college male would go from crushing sweet delicious Natty Brahs on the reg, bedding slampigs on the reg, generally not giving a fuck on the reg to working 100 hrs a week for some balding squatty friendless loser (don't care how rich they are, they're dads are richer) MD/VP/Associate and that dork wad Cindy Chan from corporate finance? No.
The true bros in an analyst class are few and far between. Most that act fratty are actually giant pussies that like bottle service, think wearing suite jackets to bars is "cool", take girls on dates, doesn't know shit bout hockey, went to NYU or any other school in NYC, brings up the MLL when lax comes up, gay bullshit like that.
Quick bro test: How many bowties do you own? A: At least one for each home and away colors
Which is correct terminology, top shelf or top cheddar? A: top cheddar, immediately dismissal if they don't know what you're talking about.
What's worse being poor or a GDI? A: Trick question being hipster.
How many t-shirts do you own? A: I haven't worn anything that doesn't have a collar in 20 years, I'm 22.
Fratstraps of snapbacks? A: yes
Drink of choice? A: Natty Light, Keystone, Jack
Keystone...
That is possibly the worst beer EVER.

something tells me you wrote the second definition
No way, beast is much better than keystone.
But the bigger point is that anyone who is so concerned with terminology is a tool.
What?
I go to the bar back home in my northface and ugg slippers and crush stones all day long.
Pussies.
Pshhh puh-lease, I didn't say I won't/don't drink it! That shit is cheaper than water, so it's very economical to go buy 3 or 4 dirty thirties (btw, has anyone else ever made thirty packs?) if you're having a bunch of people come over. But, in general, if I'm drinking economically I'd rather "trade up" (lol) from keystone for the "higher brand" natty or beast.
Speaking of beer, and I know anthony loves politics/Obama bashing...I think Obama should have another "beer summit" closer to 2012, but this time he should shotgun a cheap college beer to fire up young voters.
Hahaha
I drink a lot of PBR right now. Beast is solid. Natty. I still regularly crush 40's or OE.
Keystone is such an innovator. They came out with the light beer first. Keystone regular is so rare, in the red box. It tastes like shit. I used to be able to drink well over a 12 pack of Key and still be decent. My powers have weakened as of late.
There IS in fact a worst beer in the world official list.

Keystone Light is awesome.
Natty Ice is best bang for your buck.
