I concur with the analysis.
lol

Some might label this irony, but I too concur...
Have you ever read the comments some of the users post on Wall Street Playboy's articles? The douchebaggery makes me cringe.
What's nuts is that I'm pretty sure the guy that runs WallStreetPlayboys is also some high level guy in Equity Research (or something like that. He did a Q&A Interview on here about a month or so ago, I just can't remember.
EDITED... you posted just before me saying something similar
Here is part 1 of the proof that WSP is probably legit when it comes to finance...
http://www.wallstreetoasis.com/blog/interview-with-wallstreetplayboys-a…
And his position makes the blog's comment about "It’s hilarious that this kid thinks someone will even care about his opinion on a stock. Bro, you’re a junior banker, go back to pumping models." seem pretty ill informed.
The intelligent response via dude's website:
Today was a good day.
We learned of a quick article that labeled our website as the douchest finance blog of the year. We couldn’t be prouder. Think about it like this, the more haters you have the better you’re doing and in addition who doesn’t want to be a D-Bag? Seriously lets take a look.
Don’t Be a D-Bag… Why? According to average people being a D-bag is a bad thing. Maybe they are dead wrong and are just a bunch of losers? Lets take a glance at the photo below, would you want to be a D-Bag?
@frozencheese: Just read some of his interview, stopped after I read point number 3.
regardless of their merit in financial career, it appears they are completely shallow losers themselves with little to no touch with reality. guess what dude, wanting to make money and get laid is "average". also, calling people haters is so gauche and immature that it is really embarrassing to even read. also, judging by their views on family values and "living the normal life", it's easy to conclude that their parents simply didn't love them and likely still don't (I never remember any time where my family "drags me down"). not much else to say on the matter and if they are happy that people act as "haters" all for the sake of popularity then more power to 'em. it must be an extremely hollow and unfulfilling existence and I feel very sorry for them.
His posts on here are good and his interview was great/very helpful. Maybe that WSP site is supposed to be some sort of attempt at satire?
ps background was vetted by me before we did interview via 2 sources,
His posts are extremely helpful in my opinion and he even went out of his way to create a valuation cheat sheet for everyone. Regardless of what he says in a blog he's pretty OK in my book.
Also, calling someone out in a blog is a pretty big douchebag move in my opinion so maybe this is an instance of the pot calling the kettle black.
Live and let live is the lesson we should all take here.
I'm pretty sure it's a marketing thing aimed at new WS/wannabe WS kids. A lot of his posts are actually pretty insightful, just have to get past the douchey packaging.
almost seems like multiple people using that account/blog
probably gets his associates to write his blog for him in addition to his research reports.
Just read this: http://wallstreetplayboys.com/a-day-in-the-life-of-a-loser/
Wow...no words. What a conceited loser.
Actually just read that. Don't care if it's just rhetoric. It's arrogantly demeaning to apparently all who don't aspire to work on wall street. No point in writing this shit, even for satire unless you work for SNL.
Late to the party, I know. But his Twitter is... epic, for lack of a better word.
"Men... life is just a game. The way we keep score is the $$$ in your bank account and by the number of hot chicks you bang #childfree."
Epic is an understatement. I'm willing to bet he's listened this song at least 5 times.
