0 You're saying over half the people on this forum went to NYU? Intern in IB-M&A
0 Unless you’re super certain of what you’re looking for (e.g., UMM/MF PE in NY only), probably makes more sense to just wait. Associate 1 in PE - Growth
0 3.1 at EB/MS/GS . It’s not impossible . Incoming Analyst in IB - Cov

0 We are spending billions of dollars every day to accomplish nothing useful.  If were serious about Iran's nuclear capability, we would have left the diplomacy oriented deal in place. financeabc
0 Yeah if it's for essentially a district wide rezoning that makes sense that so many people came out in opposition. Ozymandia
0 So this means that any firm where more than half the executives are white men are misogynist? If you'll agree that any firm with more than 50% white male executives are disasters, I'll agree BP is too. Ozymandia
0 Oxford BA which later becomes an MA. Donkey from Shrek
0 MOE SF should probably be as high (if not swap places with) JPM SF. Also, where is CVP Tech SF? Some sit in the city and that is definitely up there as well. Not that great a list tbh. Associate 1 in PE - LBOs
0 Another TDS weirdo. Acting like nepotism is a brand new concept because trump is in office.  Associate 1 in IB - CB
0 By definition, if you are in a HF seat by mid-30s, you’re probably at least $5M+. You’ve outlasted most peers and still have a job. For some context, I think 70-80% of net worth is generated 30-35. Investment Analyst in HF - EquityHedge
0 Stern is too low Intern in IB-M&A
0 Also, you want to be working out and be lean, this will increase your T,  your recovery time, and your sex drive. Make working out a priority unless it cuts into  your sleep. Isaiah_53_5 💎🙌💎🙌💎

0 This is the rebuttal you came up with? After listing 8 points of dogshit logic that I thoroughly dismantled, your rebuttal is to not rebut me at all?  anon1019

0 Mubadala's (Mubadala, Mubadal Capital, and MGX) US team is actually pretty good with just as good talent as MM/UMM funds, not sure why you're so salty Analyst 2 in IB - Cov

0 Most successful PMs that are serious about delivering for their investors stay focused on their day job and recognize the stuff you're mentioning is a distraction. MMPM
0 Yeah no shit top talent hasn't been giong to PE for like almost 20 years, and the only reason people in finance think they are super smart is because they incorrectly identify with genuinely super smart people (Rob Granier green_duck

0 The "good" clubs in Michigan are MII/GIC/MIBC (these 3 clubs kind of rotate around on who placed "the best" each year) and TAMID is ngl equally good. VVI/MIG/AIC is a step below. Then there's MSBO. Prospect in IB - Gen

0 That’s surprising to hear. Almost every person on TikTok, Quora, r/6thform and r/UniUK would tell you to pick Oxbridge over Princeton due to its superior worldwide prestige. I wonder which country you’re referring to? DeletedAccount...
0 Can I DM you please DeletedAccount...
0 Stop this bro, PWP is a glorified MM nowadays Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
