Nobody wants to be the fat 5’2” MD.

At the end of the day I think only 1% of us are doing this for the career. I’m doing this shit so that I can have a nice family later on and the chad analyst who’s bangin’ a 10 is living a significantly better life than the 5’2” MD who still has to pay escorts for sex.

No point in having a yacht to be alone on it but that’s just my 2 cents I’m still p new to the banking life

 
Funniest

As a 6'5" Chad mass monster, intellectually gifted, and recently transitioned male specimen, I must say that the erection I felt when I saw a particular 6'1" female specimen was so raging, so engorged, so succulently bulbous, so urethra-irritating and so zipper-catching that if a suitable female had even 1% of that feeling when looking at me, I would rather live atop of a sewer grate next to a porta potty inside an Indian restaurant within a Somalian hairline restoration clinic next to the right Sikh land of independent Khalistan, than be a 5'2" MD.

 

OP is missing the word “rather” be, but ok carry on.

6'5 chad analyst and this is a fucking no brainer if you have your prioritiies in life together.

All of these jobs are top career gigs that will pay top 5% income relative to the population. Yes, being an MD makes much more, but at a certain point riches are just cope for being fat ugly loser.

You will have a far better complete life as the 6'5 chad analyst. People will want to be around you more, women will want to be with you (genuinely, not for money), you have the income to still travel globally/live well wherever, you are in better shape so can do damn near anything, etc.

If you wanted to make this more interesting the 6'5 chad should be a starving artist type with absolutely zero career prospects  but still good looking enough to easily get laid. That would create a good conversation.
