Monday @Mentions June 30, 2014

Good afternoon fellas, to all that attended the conference festivities, hope you had a great time!! Wish I could have been there but was lucky enough to make my way to Rio and enjoy some futebol, caipis, cariocas and praia. Sounds horrible, I know.

Here are this week's @Mentions, and don't forget to join in the Webinar today at 5pm et entitled "Webinar: Fixed Income Sales and Trading - Products and Markets + Q&A". More info here.

Post of the Week:

What I've learned so far after 1 yr at a top MBA program (If I could do it over) by @"TheGrind". 30 sb's and counting. Isn't it refreshing to read an honest take on MBA programs...(particularly since it's written from someone currently in one).

Lol, this comment by @"DingDong08" on what George W's "wake up" moment may have been... check it out.
