A few questions about banking

Hey guys,

I'm doing a banking internship this summer and am toying with the idea of whether I want to do it long term. It seems like a lot of ppl do banking so they can get into PE/HF afterward. I guess my question is: given the hours and stress of banking, how are people so convinced that they're actually going to like doing PE or working at a HF?

It seems like a ton of effort doing something you probably don't like for two years only to hopefully get into something you hopefully will like...

Any thoughts on this?

My pro/con list for going into banking is as follows:

Pro:

$$$
exit opps
developing a huge network
quality of life after paying my dues

Cons

stress/hours
not sure I want to do PE/HF
lack of fulfillment (don't really feel like i"m making a dif in the world by working on a deal)

Any help would be awesome.

Thanks,
Yodaddy
