+34 feel like these are the type of shows that finance wannabes obsess over and follow. the type of people that will watch 8 hours of Billions straight but aren't willing to even make two network calls in a day. Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
+34 You need to pressure Associates and VPs to stop being completely fucking useless (50% of them are) and actually take some work off analysts’ plates. An associate can turn fucking comments for example. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+34 I think I’m following your nephew on Instagram. He charged me $500 to recommend some good crypto picks and I got 2000% return in a month. Highly recommend 10/10. Isaiah_53_5 💎🙌💎🙌💎

+34 Of course you're going to get SB'ed by the regular WSO user. It's very convenient that you won't post with your first account because you're afraid to get outed as a "female". What are you so afraid of? Monkeyrella
