It seemed like the kids’ banker was an X CS guy. Fantastic episode. Hyped for the remainder of the season.
Roman making fun of the banker guy was funny AF
Solid ep - love the Disgusting Brothers moniker. Roman consistently comes across as the most business savvy but seems to get steamrolled by those around him.
Agreed - you could definitely tell he thought they were overpaying for Pierce but still went along with it. The Greg and Tom stuff was fantastic. Top moment was when Logan wanted people to roast him and Greg said where are your kids lol
Honorable mention was Kendall describing their new company "The Hundred is Substack meets Masterclass meets The Economist meets The New Yorker:"..."It has an ethos of a non profit but the path to crazy margins".
Greg's comment was unreal - that he wasn't smothered immediately is telling to how the dynamics have shifted, and probably how alone Logan feels at this point.
The kids are starting to balance each other out pretty well - Kendall's descriptions were interesting, but largely I'd agree Roman has the most actual grounded business sense of the group. They all knew they were overpaying, and that's somewhat of the point I think. They don't have the money yet, it's contingent on a sale that's not final, and basically are betting the farm to spite their dad - he seems to be the only one going "hey, let's think about this". I already feel the train wreck coming.
I LOL'd when they wondered if the concept was "too good". Otherwise "Why hadn't it been done before?"
You mean like every single news aggregator out there?
"Do you guys actually know what half a bil is? its like 500 million dollars"
More high school kids are gonna gun for investment banking after watching the show. More competition and saturation for upcoming graduates. Stagflation, headcount reduction, more layoffs. Sorry, I am just kinda stressed out
Are you stupid, why would it?
Yeah I would say more would want to start their own businesses based off this episode/show then go in IB.
It's "premiere" ...........................
"Premiere, with an e at the end, refers to the first public performance or showing of something, such as a movie or play. It can be a noun or a verb—for example, a movie premieres at its premiere. Premier, without the e, is (1) an adjective meaning first in status, and (2) a noun denoting a prime minister."
Thank you sir. Do you watch Succession? If so what are your thoughts?
I haven't seen it yet - thanks for the recommendation. I'll have to check it out.
Banker: “This is exciting guys!”
Roman: “He’s gonna bill us 200 mil for that strategy advice”
LOL
I thought it was good. Stopped after S2 due to it becoming dry, but this was a good one watching the kids banding together and pushing back. Roman's smartassery certainly clicks with me but seeing Kendall being the "screw you, I don't have to wear a suit to prove I can be more professional and have a better understanding than you" was great too. Shiv I just don't care about.
Way better than s3 already
Great episode, but also a really sad one.
