Being PM is prestigious.

IB is okay for making a bit of money. But if you're going for big money, then IB only takes you so far. Good to make a bit of capital before 25, that's about it. The key is how to make a few mil before 26 or even 10m. Won't be doing that in IB.

The moment one starts caring about whether the salary is actually $55k or $75k, your life is probably capped any way. $20k? Seriously...

My god half the people here sprout so much rubbish when they really have no idea, except for us and maybe this cl2345678910 guy. So much misinformation. To answer an earlier question about why do IB when the hours are so unmanagable, here's a simple answer: - You are actually very poor; -...

Actually I used to have a smirk on my face if I finished at midnight, as that's comparatively early. And I'd go drinking because I was so exhaulted. As for retiring in 10 years, if you managed to last 10 years and banked away most of your salary, you probably could retire semi-decently. Then...

No they don't have a life. Is it the holy grail? Neither. Trading time for money. Hardly a capitalist.

Well as I said, would be getting this awesome $8k ring at 34. Am actually looking at engagement ring in HK - need to fly there to have a look. Should catch up for a drink. I tried an awesome long island at Otto de Mezzo last time.

If setting yourself up early (ie prior to 30) and having sufficient passive income before 30 to have the ability to invest in land when you feel like it because it's a bargain and can make you a few hundred k in 6 months, running for politics because you desire to give back to society, buying...

No one would be wearing the cost if they brought in $3m by rorting the process. Of course if they rorted the process to give some dude a $50k job but in turn earned the firm nothing, they should be fired. Last time my boss told me I can stay home and do nothing and be called Super Duper...

Oh that's the one where you buy a mine for $30m using $800k which you've saved up while working as an electrician, then sell it for $150m, then turn it in to $700m through share investing, then negotiate to buy another mine for $700m, then float it for $1.3bn, then merge it with another company...

If someone is a migrant, they're an Australian... no?

Yes let them fall and in the meantime your parents in Australia might be unemployed and lose their house Ahhh don't ask me why. Read some macro pieces if you have time.

Yea well I've been involved in processes where people don't need to come in for an interview. We just offered them a job. And then got a $3m fee from their dad. If you think partners are here to promote equality or justice, think again. Try telling him your dad can offer him $3m.

Only if it involves torture and ripping their tongue out

Was in the Qantas Lounge with this guy a few days ago. He looked like one angry person.

Yes. Until there's no more customers left and parents can't afford internet for the kiddies to post irresponsible comments.

You can say what you want and deny all you want. Reality was when the Indian media "blew things out of proportion", Australia lost a lot of $$. Same thing will happen now. Keep taking your customers for granted and soon you'll have no customers. Simple.

Nothing makes me happier than buying overseas properties and shares on such a high currency in anticipation of the red necks' uprising. Feel sorry for the rest of the common folk. Oh well adios. Retired.

Actually your house is even worse and costs money to hold. Sell it!

If your connection is a senior person in the firm who will one day be say the Foreign Minister of this country or Treasurer of this country, it's pretty usful.
