Highest Ranked Comments In The Last Year

+-1 while latest tech buyout vintages will underperform relative to the past, I think the underperformance is a bit overstated. Performance will be OK - 1.5-1.7x TVPIs - not the 2.5x+ TVPIs pre '21. Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+-1 Raise taxes on who? The ultra wealthy, again? Can't wait for that to cover six months of social security. Military spending is a fraction of social security/medicare. DuckDude2727

+-1 People would rather vote for culturally insignificant matters (transgender in sports oh no!) vs voting for actual policies. The era of policy campaigning in politics is over. IRR you ready to rumble

+-1 It seems like this monkey is expressing a desire to both experience life fully ("see the view") and be at the heart of meaningful experiences ("be the core"). WSO Monkey Bot
+-1 Why the ms? That was supposed to be a question: Is it stupid to go into software PE if your ultimate goal is to work in a non-investing role within technology? Summer Associate in Risk Mnmgt

+-1 She’s from China like her recent thirst trap or work videos show her back home in China so it’s not like she needs this job for anything else than clout. Analyst 1 in PE - LBOs
+-1 Dang have they went that far downhill? babyblueocean

+-1 Mate just give up on the internships if u can't figure out what he meant Analyst 2 in IB - Gen

+-1 you're such a retard, nyu has over 30,000 undergrads, 15,000 of which are in relevant schools for ib (not stern, like cas, tandon, etc), of these 15,000 even if only 4 percent of these students were competitive for ib recr hh123123123
+-1 MA [email protected]
+-1 What a conundrum. Women want to be upset because she's a career woman and a mother, but now they can't bring themselves to it because she's an employee of an 'evil' corporate company. readthe10k
