If you live in London just go to Canary Wharf for the day and set the radius on Tinder to 2 miles ;)

 

Unicorns do exist. My girlfriend is in a buy-side role. I guess you could say she has a “dominant” personality from a career perspective because she is a well-educated woman with high earning power and works in a male-dominated, intense industry. Because of that though, it’s almost like it makes her want to be more submissive & give up some control in a romantic relationship. It does wild things to my ego to know I’m pretty much the only person she does that for.

 

what do you mean built different? I don't understand how they are different than someone working in fashion or restaurant. Isn't it better that you have similar interests?

 

Seconding and probably agree with other suggestions like HR/recruiters and opps at most. I don't know why anyone in finance would want to date a finance girl. I'm sure there are outliers out there but I don't know -  boring, Type A personalities who have limited time has never sounded appealing.

Yeah opps, HR, recruiting etc is fine. Recruiting and IR have the BADDEST women. But ain’t no fucking way I’m about to wife up a girl in equity research or investment banking

i go home to ESCAPE that stuff 

but that’s me personally.. the double high income thing is nice but still not worth it to me 

 

What about the financial aspect though? I have been blowing through my salary in NY

 

Why would you want a girl in finance? She'll more than likely have masculine (personality) tendencies and be generally unavailable depending on her field. Plus women typically date up, not lateral and certainly not down. It may sound intuitive to want a finance chick due to the common ground that's already established but you'd be much better off find a girl in a different field. Fin-girls are less likely to give you the things you'd want from a traditional girlfriend.

 

Consulting girls are the move. Plenty of hot girls at MBB. Make similar money to IB, they work similar hours during the week so no need to worry about missing weekday dates, and they have protected weekends so they’re around when you are over the weekend.

Currently dating an MBB girl and it’s great. She actually pays for meals and buys me gifts unlike any other girl I’ve dated in fashion/marketing, and she’s also just more intellectual and fun to talk to

 

I met a girl in CFA class - she was cute - blonde hair, blue eyes… we dated.

Might be biased as a finance girl but some finance girls are hot. Gotta go for the ones that make time for themselves to exercise/shop/cook etc not the hardos
