The Life of an Investment Banker


It's been awhile. I have some regrets that I didn't kick off this blog talking about the investment banker lifestyle.

If you wondered why you haven't heard from me lately, it was because I was getting more awesome.
 
This is me at a hotel room in Las Vegas taking Christmas Break early. That is what is called contrarian investing; I will be working my butt of during Christmas week. But then again, how can I call what I do work. I live, breathe and eat it. It gives me endorphins I could almost swear.
More on that pic of me: Did you notice how subtly I was showing off why I am such a good investment banker. There is of course the must have shades and then iPhone 4s to show everyone how tech savvy I am. Not to mention the fact that I was taking this pic while deciding which tie to wear.
I finally decided on the $100 Saks Fifth Avenue tie you see in that pic. No, I am not going to be wearing my Lacoste Sport Tee which I usually wear for a round of golf, etc. There is more to the pic - notice my $700 22k gold ring with a diamond stud too.
That's investment banking in a nutshell for you. There is the good side and then the not so good side.


For now, Nevada beckons. I love Las Vegas. Great lights and great women! What more could you ask for?
