Investment Banker

An investment banking analyst who is stuck in the office over the weekend and loses it. The life of an investment banker is tough. Jumping out of an airplane makes it a little better, oh and so do the bonuses!

    He can probably buy the most expensive thing in your life off of a bonus… your pathetic… Do people like Bill Gates care about what people think when they wear comfortable clothes? What makes you think he will. Your a tool. He can make you his slave and make you sew him a new suit if he wanted

    Lol, thats what my co-worker did he insulted me about my clothes (mine cost more than his) and he was jealous I made more money.

  14. SR553 says:

    why would you insult a dudes work clothes? seems like your a bit jealous of his income

    If this is the calibre of man these banks have working for them , its no wonder they almost drove themselves into the dustbin of history.

  16. kernel2006 says:

    Sure this guy may be earning an income in the 99.9th percentile, but damn his sense of style is terrible. I bet he’s been wearing those khakis since he was 16. What is it with nerds, why do they love that outfit so much? Is there some big convention where they hand out khakis, shirts and belts for free? I thought Ibankers were supposed to wear $6000 tailored, pinstripe suits. He doesn’t even have a watch, and his shoes look pretty bad too.

    Hey hey people, not so fast, not all people at the I Banks have never ending shifts. The traders have short shifts too so lets not forget that as well.

    thank you for the reply, i realise i have a long way to go, and you have made a very good point about networking. This is something which i shall acknowledge and i shall seek the attention of many IB’s and HF managers.

    thank you again.

    whoa! you got a long way to go. you’r 16, I’m guessing you are a high school junior- or in 11th grade. You still have about 6 years to go. It’s doable, but very difficult to skip some work experience after your bachelor’s degree and go directly for an MBA and get hired as an associate. It’s extremely rare, even when you have above a 95% in all your classes. Industry is all about networking

  20. laikhambrgr says:

    I’m 16 and looking to get my MBA in Economics and Mathematics. I hope to join an IB when i’m out of university.

    I was wondering, I did read the “Vault” pages on IBing and did learn alot, but does one have to start out as an analyst and work they’re up or can they start as an associate?

    Personally I believe I would be good at this job because i’ve already made my father and some of his friends over £20,000. all from a sum of £5000 each deposited.

    just wanting some guidance

    first of all, I don;t know why are you getting so much hyper over this. Sir, I suggest you check and see a website called “Vault” to see a ground reality, what other Bankes are saying. yes, their base salary starts at about 200 and with bonuses, options etc, the take home of a first year associate can hit up to 350. if you are a member of vault, then i can send you the links.

    I am a CFA candidate december but helps only as an analyst. Associates and up typically hold MBAs

  22. missedagain says:

    Go look at the census for compensation for MBA holders, the average is NOT mid 300s.

    And yes, investments bankers with enough experience do make that sort of money, but investment bankers who do that well usually hold CFAs. An MBA doesn’t qualify you to handle investments on that level. It’s for administrative positions.

  23. emperor0989 says:

    please don;t get me wrong. I am not talking about some boutique investment bank after-MBA-associates from a State Uniersity who might make about $150,000 right out of colege.

    When I mean MBA- I mean MBA from a top 10 university- NYU, Columbia etc. and a job a bulge bracket- Citibank, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley.

    I am not talking about portfolio managers. this video is about Investment Banking and on the sell side. yo DO make that kind of money in I Banking

  24. missedagain says:

    An MBA won’t make you that sort of money, or get you that sort of job. An MBA is a masters of business administration.
    Portfolio managers in the debt/equities markets require a ~ CFA (chartered financial anaylst), a very difficult post undergrad professional designation.
    On average an MBAer will be hard pressed to make that sort of money. The individuals who DO make that sort of money with just an MBA are ones who either have powerful friends, or are naturally talented in their work.

  25. emperor0989 says:

    no. although you are right about the salary and the bonus, an analyst just requires 4 yearas of undergrad degree, preferabely in finance or accounting. an associate or upper level requires an MBA, which is 2 years of grad school, not 4. they make about $350,000 with bonus and work less hours than analysts who work about 100 hours a week/ 20 hours a day.
