[@viditchopra9857]

As an engineer myself i could highly relate, we do get really cranky if food is late 😬

[@kevinhkim2]

[8:16] There's a critical typo. "408 evaluations" to be "409A valuation".

[@entreprenuership_opportunities]

[@davidr4523]

@@TheBaharsa thank you. I thought I was missing something. This women does not sound credible to me.

Toxic securities don’t exist. Things labeled toxic usually aren’t

Java programmer and investment banker? Huh?

[@nathanmartinez2630]

She explains that she started as an engineer and transitioned internally to IB a few years later

[@tvm73836]

0:48 Why does a Java programmer call herself an "investment banker"? Anyone who knows anything about investment banking knows that not everyone who works for an i-bank is a "banker".

[@whom3658]

Change the colour of your channel logo, it seems like that your channel is sponsored. That's what I have observed.

[@parveenk7]

Left before the building collapsed, left lehman brothers before the collapse and joined an early stage startup which grew tremendously over time. Crazy luck 🫡
