A recent college grad wants to know if working in the adult film industry will, uh, hurt his chances for bschool admission and a future career in finance.

"If I were to eventually find employment in the financial division of an adult film company (to gain experience), would it affect my future career options?  Would typical financial firms and funds or VC firms look down upon this work experience?  Would MBA programs count it as a “strike” against me?"
