Just my own POV. Wolf of Wall Street wasn't about investment banking. It was about stock brokerage and it's different players.

[@AsifAkhtar20]

Wolf of Wall Street is actually very accurate. That's exactly what happens at prop trading desks - minus the in office wh0res and cocaine, these happen outside ofc

[@kazinafis5696]

You are a great resource (y)

[@Anthony-bh6dd]

The market trend can turn around very quickly. In fact, the indexes often switch from a bear market to a bull market when the news is at its worst and the mood of investors is at its lowest point. I read an article of people that grossed profits up to $150k during this crash, what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist?

[@Sarah-ui3vd]

Investors should be cautious about their exposure and be wary of new buys, especially during inflation. Such high yields in this recession is only possible under the supervision of a professional or trusted advisor.

[@Joseph-zw3sb]

True, initially I wasn't quite impressed with my gains, opposed to my previous performances, I was doing so badly, figured I needed to diversify into better assets, I touched base with a portfolio-advisor and that same year, I pulled a net gain of 550k...that's like 7times more than I average on my own.

[@Joseph-zw3sb]

“Angela Lynn Shilling’’ is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.

[@Keneth94]

I think investors should always put their cash to work, especially In 2024, we'll start to see more market diversification. I'm hoping to invest about $350k of my savings in stocks against next year. Hope to make millions in 2024

[@Michael25ycl]

Since risk is at an all-time high right now, perhaps you should be a little more patient and return when it has decreased. Alternatively, you can consult a trained financial expert for strategy.

[@MrsStephanie5]

Yes true, I have been in touch with a brokerage Advisor. With an initial starting reserve of $80k, my advisor chooses the entry and exit commands for my portfolio, which has grown to approximately $550k.

[@patrica7]

I’ve been looking to switch to an advisor for a while now. Any help pointing me to who your advisor is?

[@MrsStephanie5]

NICOLE ANASTASIA PLUMLEE is her name. She is regarded as a genius in her area and works for Empower Financial Services. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.

[@patrica7]

I searched for her full name online, found her page, and sent an email to schedule a meeting. Hopefully, she responds soon. Thank you

[@yuehangli9926]

how would you suggest making a career switch in to investment banking and would you suggest investment banking or fintech? would you get a certificate in fintech or a masters in finance to break into the industry? Thank you in advance and keep up the good work. i know it isn't easy making high quality videos like these.

Do you need to graduate from an elite school to go into investment banking?

[@Karandeepsingh-kk2rv]

How many less hours would you say investment bankers work if they are in ECM or DCM when compared to M&A?

[@rareliquidcareers]

depends on the week, sometimes they may be equally busy but in general about 10-20 hours less per week

[@eld3moniod3monio40]

That's true in wall street those ppl are plugged.for experience

[@malikq86]

Aren't these compensations really based on NYC firms (where most IB/PE companies are)? I doubt these compensations would be align for IB/PE firms in Texas for example. Correct? or is this pretty universal regardless of location?

[@rareliquidcareers]

pretty standard across most of the US. for example at jpmorgan it didn't matter if you were in SF, LA, or NY, you would get the same compensation. so for elite boutiques / bulge bracket banks / most middle market banks, pay will be similar across offices. but at the smaller regional boutique level, i could see compensation being drastically different depending on location / firm in europe / asia / other countries outside of the US though the compensation is very different

[@CCoh123]

Why are Elite Boutique positions compensated more than Bulge Bracket positions? Thanks for the insight

[@clemenshopfer8548]

Compensation for often worse exit opps

I am an under graduate student from India and will pass CFA level two and FRM both level papers till graduation. I am pursuing bachelors degree in account. And along with this I also do an internship as an equity dealer with one of the Top brokers in India. After I graduate, I dream of my future and my career in Wall Street in New York, is this dream possible, that I can then take a job in a very big company like Morgan Stanley, JP MORGAN, Goldman Sachs or another big and medium Financial Corporation. Please reply I need help a lot. And I am going to have a dream that there is a boy who dreams of doing something big in the future. Please reply.

[@barryaherne215]

I'm kind of speaking from an unknown place here, but I did a quick Googley to see how things are here in Europe, and what I found was that the maximum amount of hours that one can work in a week is 48, and employees are entitled to at least an 11 hour break every 24 hours. That would lead me to a few thoughts/questions: Maybe I'm a little naive here and it does happen in some industries, but the idea of working up to 100 hour weeks would not be allowed in the EU legally, especially combined with having 9 hours at most between finishing and starting. That being said, if IB does indeed happen over here, then deals must be completed in a much longer window, so then why can't the same happen in the U.S? It wouldn't be anything to do with those wonderful, non-exploitative labour laws, would it?

[@rareliquidcareers]

hmm i'm pretty sure bankers work more than 48 hours a week in europe though you may know better than me. not sure about your question!

[@barryaherne215]

@@rareliquidcareers - Brave of you to assume I know better than you lol. But yeah, I was just curious.

[@tilloberto]

There might be laws but the fact is that analysts also have to work for 70+ hours in Europe. It might be a bit more in the US but they are also earning more. The economy depends on investment bankers and strategy consultants. That's why politics doesn't step in. Hope that clarifies.

[@barryaherne215]

@@tilloberto Good to know. Thank you!

[@minecraftsteveable]

Actually, most banks in London make you sign a waiver for those hours if you are a EU citizen, meaning you still work long hours.
