BB drop out to MM to HF

Haven't been on here for long time. Around 13 years in industry

Started in BB. Found it too hard so quit before making Associate and headed to MM. Stayed there around 8 years on pretty mediocre salaries (maybe US$300-400k pa). But easy work and lite hours. Left and started own HF with savings and property gamblings. Now pulling in few mil easy pa before 35.
