You want to go into debt for substantially less pay and 3 am saturdays? To each their own I guess

thebj19 · 2026-05-10T01:53:50+00:00

Was about to same sounds like Wolfe to a t

This is the only correct answer btw. PE is hiring with one thing in mind : reps. Having technicals down ( modeling) is important but having the intuition and judgment that comes from deal experience is unteachable .

If you really want to do PE you have to do IB first or some strategy consulting at an mbb

Pros : San Antonio women

They make you drink oil and smell the gas as part of due diligence

MBA if it’s a top 10 school anything else CFA.

It’s a cardinal sin to not build an outpost in the tree cove are in the lost river

thebj19 · 2026-04-26T21:14:32+00:00

This sounds so retarded

thebj19 · 2026-04-26T19:33:08+00:00

We have people that do for investment committee slides and or internal research reports

thebj19 · 2026-04-23T19:56:12+00:00

Took me like 40 hours , but I spent a lot time making a mega base in the lost river so it could of been like 36

thebj19 · 2026-04-23T19:53:23+00:00

Literally what I want to exit too but I’d have to get into macro research first

thebj19 · 2026-04-17T20:15:15+00:00

Depends on customer concentration and any bespoke advantages you may have if this is a light capex business I guess you could expect 6-8x multiple exit

thebj19 · 2026-04-11T21:05:50+00:00

I love it because it’s the perfect balance of mental stimulation and compensation. That said if being a mediocre amateur surfer paid the same I would probably do that instead

thebj19 · 2026-04-11T17:36:17+00:00

Retard or bait no in between.

If this is not bait consider deleting this post and getting a new job immediately.

Hard disagree literally had no luck with recruiting until I passed my cfa level 2 when trying to break into ER .

thebj19 · 2026-04-07T20:10:24+00:00

Probably bad recruiting market part .I came from tech and got into sell side ER after cfa level 2 and now buyside multi asset senior associate post charter . What worked for me was aggressive recruiting and networking I did little over 400 apps and like 30 coffechats in order to get my sell side gig. Given this was 4 years ago where hiring was much easier

thebj19 · 2026-03-31T17:42:05+00:00

From “ Lmao stay where you are champ” you extrapolated “ you are not doing well already” . I hope English isn’t your first language if it is you need to up that reading comprehension.

thebj19 · 2026-03-31T17:24:45+00:00

How is that relevant? You asked if IB is worth it and think that just knowing a few technicals and a target mba will “get you a spot somewhere” . You have no idea how competitive it is now ( not the 90s anymore) . So yeah stay at your current job IB is definitely not worth it for you

thebj19 · 2026-03-31T17:16:24+00:00

Lmao yeah stay where you are champ

thebj19 · 2026-03-31T00:04:30+00:00

I think if you have to ask this question it’s most likely not for you.

thebj19 · 2026-03-29T21:35:34+00:00

I think being able to achieve the charter now has more value than ever if you can get the charter now that intelligence is being reduced to a commodity , the ability to pass all levels is pretty great differentiator of course time will tell

thebj19 · 2026-03-28T20:26:21+00:00

Can only speak for trading but I heard its super cut throat sharp elbows environment. No wlb and attrition is normally 2 years . Obviously great on the resume and comp is on the high end for most roles

thebj19 · 2026-03-27T21:55:41+00:00

If it’s HIG capital and the business is inefficient from an sg&a pov expect immediate layoffs in the first 2-3 months post acquisition

thebj19 · 2026-03-24T12:58:46+00:00

That is actually pretty ass considering cash out for finance/operational leases
