For me it went like this
>8am wake up
>in office by 8:30
>lunch at 12pm, either with co-workers or at my desk depending on the workload
>if it's an easy day we're done by 9-10pm (10% of the time)
>if it's a regular day 11-12pm
>if it's a shitstorm 2-3am

Investment banking is a different beast from consulting though. 80hr weeks are standard

>>18205928
Bump

Was it worth the crazy hours? I knew a bunch of people who went into IB and they seemed like they made a ton of money but also spent a lot of it because they needed an apartment near the office that was expensive, ate all their meals out, and paid for a ton of conveniences since they had no time

>>18206346
The compensation is good especially for a college kid straight out the door. I'll be making $110k base with around 50-100% in bonus.
That's good $$$. The meals thing is a non issue since you pretty much only have to pay for breakfast. The only shit thing is that rent in Manhattan (close to my office) is total robbery.
Anyways, everyone knows that your first two years are sucky and after that you start to make big boy money (300k all in).

>>18205942
Hey lay off her. It's probably hard getting through life squinting to see everything. That could be the nightly fucking happy hour though.

>>18205928
>A subway wrap and some wilted leaves at the bottom of a bowl are $35 in NYC
I just love the hustle and bustle of the big city

>>18205973
>12pm
no wonder you didn't make it

>>18205942
A million times better than being an inbred cleetus flyover redneck rube hillbilly bumpkin, and it's only the bottom tier possibility.

>>18205928
>getting the 9/11 special in NYC
Yikes.

>>18205942
this is probably one of the better one of these vids that i've seen, most of the other ones don't even show them doing any work, they just snack on random bullshit and attend useless "seminars"

>>18205973
Wow, so the prime years of your life are spent in the office. One day you’ll realise that money isn’t everything but it will be too late.

>>18206678
Too late to not do whatever the fuck you want with your last 30 years because you have enough disposable cash to do whatever you want along with investments paying you passive dividends better than the average working income? OK.

>>18206719
If you make it that far, you’ll have friends and family who sadly won’t.
By then your body will be so physically past its prime that your last 30 years will be spent indoors or driving a RV.
You will have responsibilities to your partner and family which will hamper what you can do.

You have a lifetime to make money but you’re only young, fit and responsibility free for a very short period of time.

>>18206763
Post physique.

>>18206763
You're never responsibility free. Some people flout their responsibilities in their younger years to have what their impulsive minds consider to be fun. They only understand how recklessly they wasted their most productive years later in life.

>>18206528
I got the return offer lol

>>18205942
it looks so desolate and bleak

>>18207270
It's called context you mong

>>18207462
Thats just how cities are.

>>18206719
Money IS everything if you actually use it but everybody gets caught in the trap of saving up for something slight better then they could afford at that moment and never wind up spending it until they're to old to enjoy it.
Who cares if you can buy a nice house and a sports car if you're only going to puttputt
and sleep the rest of the day in one room never even using the rest of the house because you have no family to fill it

>>18205928
Do you fast, anon? I imagine if you're sitting at a PC crunching numbers all day, you could probably fast from 8PM to like, 2PM.

>>18205973
Mine was
>7:30 wake-up
>8:00 commute
>9:00 in office
>12:00 lunch
>2:00 back in office
>5:00 leave
But I was in the tech department and we were building sandcastles in the sky that no one wanted or used. I’m sure the whole department has been shut down or “reorged” by now.

>>18207562
I just eat light meals

>>18205942

this is why nothing gets accomplished anymore. we hate our work so much that we make our workplaces as cushy as possible and we reward shirking our duties. true breakthroughs are only accomplished by workaholics who do it because they truly love pushing boundaries for its own sake. this is also why the best chef in your life will always be the one who cooks just to make you happy.

>>18205942
What the fuck could a 22 year old gook possibly consult anybody about anything?

>>18207760
Consultants are just customer service reps for companies selling ideaguy plans.

>>18205942
Holy fuck, this reminds me of our idiots, spent whole day doing stupid shit instead of learning macros.
I don't remember when I attended last meeting I just respond "Reschedule, I am busy there" on everything.
They send email what they we we want because too busy to make new meeting.

>>18205942
Airboosts? Yeah she is faking it.

>>18205942
Cities can be very ugly, but not as ugly as a deep rural wasteland that hasn't been maintained and is full of half broken down trailers and condemned buildings. It's an insult to the surrounding nature.

>>18205928
What do your MDs eat?

>>18205973
You're faggot posting Cat pictures on a website with a literal nazi fourm. Kys

>545 am wakeup
>630 leave for work
>745 begin work
>430 leave work
>630 get home, eat dinner
>730 workout
>930 bed

>>18205942
I don't understand. How can she "consult" for anyone at age 22?

>>18211286
It's called being educated, you hillbilly

>>18205942
These are the people telling you to live within your means and work harder while being a diversity hire in a coddled space

>>18211286
They can't, it's a business just like anything else. Consulting firms have partners and managing directors that are extremely well connected and knowledgeable about certain industries. They leverage those connections to get consulting contracts at businesses they used to work for and still have buddies at.

Then they bill out $500/hr for some interns/associates to use some basic sql queries to put together some reports for management that anyone could have done with a tiny bit of business knowledge. Then the big wigs all gather round the numbers, make some decisions that will never come to fruition, and move on so they can say to shareholders they investigated other strategies. It's purely a cover-your-ass move.

Average partner time to associate time billed on a client is like 1-12. So you have all these companies shelling out 500/hr for BCG, when in reality they're just getting some undergrad report monkey that brings zero value. It's pretty much total non-sense.

Source, I used to work for a big 4 firm and have friends that still do. It's a joke. It's also hilarious when you hear people try to talk up their jobs so much, when they're actually just bullshit. It's basically LinkedIn personified.

>>18205942
Everytime these cunts post something like that, I'm 100% sure their jobs involves doing nothing at all.

how many of the financial decision you make are helping to squeeze money out of people with very little? wtf do you do?

>>18205973
>Investment banking is a different beast from consulting though. 80hr weeks are standard

i'm a workaholic, but i take a lower paying job to have wfh schedule and fewer responsibilities.

to get me in the office 80 hrs a week, i need my coworkers to be minimum 50% fresh out of college sluts to fuck in the bathroom. 80+ hrs a week with free lunch doesnt cut it.

>>18206678
Ofc money isn't everything anybody knows that but without money most people would die.

While true, it's not worth sacrificing the absolute majority of your life to pursue. A modest salary still keeps you alive and can be enough if you're not a consoomer bugman.
