Does working in PE help get you laid?
Currently in PE. Compared to other white collar and high paying jobs men pursue, is PE really at the top?
Benefits of being in PE - compensation, "prestige", girls assume you're good with money/finances.
Negatives of being in PE - long work hours and stress doesn't help socially or romantically, PE is increasingly viewed outside of finance (especially online) as leaches and that we destroy jobs for financial gain.
If I was in college today, wouldn't it be better to go to medical school and become a surgeon? Not even factoring AI risk to finance jobs, think women would be more attracted and interested in doctors/surgeons - prestigious, respected career by almost all of society, well paid, job is directly helping people.
If you’re really asking this shit, it doesn’t matter what your job is - there’s no helping you.
this must be written by someone in Big4 accounting lmao
Dog if you’re tall and good looking, you’ll get bitches. If you’re not, you won’t. No need to complicate this.
- Someone who works in PE but does not get bitches.
No - you have less time, are likely in worse physical shape, and your self confidence is being attacked on a daily basis by insecure balding VPs and partners. You also don’t make enough money to finance anyone else’s lifestyle so you’re still functionally poor to materialistic women.
I think around Sr associate / VP you can find a solid slightly out of shape heavy make up wearing mid who only likes you for your money. You will be spending a lot on her (nicer apartment, luxury travel, eating out, every single small expense), she will expect you to single-handedly provide a lifestyle to her and finance her dreams without giving you any kind of emotional or other support, her family will look at you like a wallet and constantly neg you about how you’re not good enough, and you will be chained to the job. Slowly, as the years go on, you’ll turn into that fat angry senior whose only outlet for respect, authority, and control is yelling at juniors because at home you’re a docile abused little puppy. As the years progress, she’ll get fatter, you’ll get balder, little sex will be had, and inevitably you’ll get divorced and lose everything and your kids won’t talk to you. You’re (very very occasionally) getting laid but you’re also living in hell…
This guy's spitting. Way too specific
This should be a pinned post everyone looking to live purely for cash should read. 100% accurate and I’ve seen it dozens of times
Everyone knows the guy with 0 game and a slightly above his level overbearing mid girlfriend who is rapidly depreciating while consuming all his money and emotional energy. Many of these men are on track to becoming partners, as they desperately need to be to keep their mid around. I would guess that most of finance at the VP / Principal+ level falls into this category.
If you’re at this stage of the golden finance career path… Godspeed.
attention to detail is spectacular
This is just a bitter guy, talking in incel tropes. I know a couple where the guy works in PE, and they both look like models. If you're going to get fat from the stress of the job, you probably would have working as a teacher. I am yet to meet a fat guy working in PE. Met my fair share of bitter fat guys in IB though.
You're likely to get a 'mid' girl, if you have no personality and act like an as*hole, and she is ONLY attracted to your money. Basically, if your goal in life is to marry a gold-digging model you wouldn't typically pull, you may have more luck building a tech start-up.
If you're looking for a girl in your league, and respects your ambition, you can definitely be successful finding someone.
His question was if being in PE and having money alone helps you get laid. The answer is only mildly yes with the worst people. Obviously if you have other redeeming factors, some amount of EQ / social skills, and prioritize dating people who are not materialistic gold diggers who also have other redeeming qualities, you’ll end up with a far far better outcome than this.
The point is that if you only care about money and only date someone who cares about money, your life is destined for misery. And, therefore, OP should spend equal or more amounts of time working on being a well rounded person vs assuming being in PE alone will solve all his problems.
Seems like u have a small d**k my friend
As an Asian man, this stereotype is one of the worst to shake off.
On balance yes
senior Aso here. Me and one of the partners at my firm flip fuck. He says if I just do a little better I can get promoted to VP but I don’t believe him. But I guess a blow job is better than no job.
based kanye reference
How tall are you let’s start there…
God gave us all a penis and a PE offer. If some get laid and others don't it's just an execution issue...
Most won’t know the distinction, and most that do you probably want to avoid…
del
You won't have any problems getting railed by your staffer on a regular basis
The best career path for getting laid is being unemployed
No
Yes if you look like Chris Hemsworth. If not, no
No but if you work at a top SMHF it does
- im a girl and ive liked a guy where a part of the appeal was that he worked at a top tiger cub. MFPE doesn’t impress me bc im at an EB IB where MFPE is pretty common / I myself am headed to one
Thank you incoming MFPE Aso, very cool
