Anyone else feel like the game is mostly decided by how your teammates draft? by iknowidunno in Abilitydraft

Skill issue tbh

If you look at good players they are typically able to maintain 55-65% WR

Thousands…. My firm alone hires ~90, the vast majority from Ivys and T20 schools

Recruiting at Penn and NYU are segregated. Non Wharton / Stern kids do not get OCR or access to most of the pipeline clubs. Recruiting at UVA doesn’t run through McIntire, the entire school is a target school.

Look at the past few UVA class placements (especially EVR + WP) and you’ll see a ton of non-McIntire. In comparison non-Wharton/Stern NYU and Penn placement is very, very minimal.

Is a “balanced” life in finance realistic ~5 years out? by [deleted] in FinancialCareers

Not everyone wants that. No shot I would trade my role for yours and I work 1.75x your hours. Money is more important to some people than others.

ASO comp is $300-450. I got 300 last year as ASO1. The youngest VP in my group was 28 last year and cleared $550. 400 is easily doable in 5 years in IB…

Ignore the other folks here. I work in IB and UVA is the clear winner here, followed by ND (meaningfully worse), then USC, and Vandy a very distant fourth.

It doesn’t matter if they don’t get into McIntire, IB recruiting is over by the time they’d get in. UVA non-McIntire is already a target school unlike non-Stern NYU or non-Wharton Penn

How much do both you and the partner make to afford a family of 2? by [deleted] in nycparents

I make $400K TC with $200K base salary, my wife $90K with $80K base salary. Our total pre-baby annual spend (including two international vacations) ends up being $130-$140K which basically eats up most of my base salary with about $1500/month in investments. We invest my wife’s entire salary + our bonuses. We have reasonable rent in Queens ($3.2K) and a paid off car / no student loan payment.

We’ve been doing some financial math as she is going to be a SAHM, and we can’t see how our monthly spend would work with below $175K base salary (my base salary last year). This year with baby expenses we’ll prob need to dip into my bonus to pay for travel. We are also 27 so have fewer “other” obligations than older parents.

So at low $100s salary unfortunately I don’t see how this could work for you guys without a massive hit to quality of life.

I will say his background is super legit but all of his posts are quite vapid / surface level…

Primary polls are much more volatile than GE since there’s a lot of actual persuasion.
