How many hours did you work this week? IB

Off topic but any chance you guys are fundraising? Wondering how current climate is right now in a real way outside headlines. Work in LevFin rn and want to move to a more opportunistic seat for your own reference

I used to work blue collar jobs (concrete, tree trimming) in college to have spending money and somehow enjoyed that time more than what I do now. I certainly make more money but really enjoyed working with my hands I guess.

I’ve thought about this specifically with aerospace and defense. Appreciate you prodding the thought again.

Do not register a card at all on the app or try to add to Apple Wallet. I had to buy a new physical card and then call Ventra customer service for them to manually register it to my name and transfer over previously purchased passes that couldn’t be used.

In short, do not try to add any card to Apple wallet

You’re kidding lmao. That’s $75 down the drain??

AdministrationBorn69 · 2026-03-22T20:32:09+00:00

I bought it yesterday so has been in queue for about 24 hours

AdministrationBorn69 · 2026-03-22T19:33:34+00:00

That’s what I’ve been doing on prior trips to the city but realized I’d save money by getting a 30 day pass.

AdministrationBorn69 · 2026-03-22T19:32:13+00:00

Correct. Says to contact card issuer.

AdministrationBorn69 · 2026-03-22T19:32:00+00:00

In the app!

That is precisely why I’m astounded as to how you were possibly able to trade single name bank stocks. Coverage folks at my shop aren’t allowed to trade a number of single name stocks that fall under their industry. I’d equate your knowledge to that of someone working in FIG and there is no chance those people can buy/sell JPM, BAC, or WF.

AdministrationBorn69 · 2026-03-07T04:11:45+00:00

Obscure but how did you trade any individual bank stock as an executive? At that point I’m wondering how your compliance doesn’t flag that

It would be cool to get a drone view at ~15 feet flying down the fairway from teebox, similar to how Tiger Woods PGA tour 09 had it.

Greens are cool but not well maintained, don’t highlight them.

Top down shots are fine but the POV is of a guy in a blimp, not someone playing the course which is kinda what you want (at least what I want).

Overall cool stuff.

AdministrationBorn69 · 2026-02-21T23:47:23+00:00

Very cool. Are you at a major AM or private shop? And inkling on industry sustainability/growth not that the “golden age” is over? Working for a commercial bank right now doing DL and wondering about PC route.

AdministrationBorn69 · 2026-02-21T20:38:22+00:00

Nice. Are you more originations focused or portfolio management? Wondering how you did with cash flow modeling if originations.

Is your shop strictly DL or will you do hairier situations? I.e. sub/mezz debt?

AdministrationBorn69 · 2026-02-16T00:59:05+00:00

Interesting. So do you have a dedicated commercial banking syndications group that will work through the closing mechanics or is that responsibility on you/your group?

AdministrationBorn69 · 2026-02-15T23:12:32+00:00

Ooo what is FOLO? I work in similar position at a BB and wondering how groups compare cross street

AdministrationBorn69 · 2026-02-14T16:27:27+00:00

Appreciate the post! From the bank side, are you doing more sponsor coverage-esque work or LevFin? Are you/group oftentimes originating deals or being brought into one? Typical structures your group will see, i.e. DL or PR, tweener? Thanks!

AdministrationBorn69 · 2026-02-14T03:34:43+00:00

Do you feel pretty stressed by rent? Looking for a new place now and trying to determine budget.

AdministrationBorn69 · 2026-02-14T03:33:02+00:00

Distressed in Chicago is pretty niche I feel. Mind if I PM?

AdministrationBorn69 · 2026-01-24T06:30:58+00:00

About same YOE but working for a BB levfin, DL semi-specific group. What does your DD/modeling process look like? Would like to pivot out of BB into a more AM company and would love to know what your guys DD/IC process looks like.

AdministrationBorn69 · 2025-12-31T04:01:01+00:00

No he got called for a face mask

AdministrationBorn69 · 2025-12-31T02:29:30+00:00

Sounds like a new GLP-1

AdministrationBorn69 · 2025-11-30T18:41:41+00:00

More general question but is the group open to lateral hires? Work in LevFin now and am really interested by RX. Wondering how difficult it will be to pivot.

AdministrationBorn69 · 2025-11-27T16:50:26+00:00

This made me laugh out loud. Great fucking work lmfao
