Stump the Intern

Q: I know that asking this won’t make me the most popular guy on your blog, but it’s anonymous so I think I’m safe. I want to be a banker. I want to eat what I kill and take home a huge bonus. Colloquially speaking, I would like to be a baller.  Any inside tips you can offer me?

Signed,
Shining up my wingtips

A: Wingtips, certainly I can’t fault you for wanting to be a baller. I hope you get what you want and that when you do, you remember our current economic crisis. With regard to inside tips—(not to be confused with insider trading tips, ahem)—I direct you to this article on investment banking interviews, aptly titled 10 Things They Hate About You.
