In Reply To: OK, I've read all the messages with people arguing about whether IB is worth working 80 to 120 hours a week, giving up your social life, losing your wife etc. I am considering a career in IB and I already know that it is not worth it. This is a personal choice, so don't bother starting an argument about it. But what I would like to know is: are these typical American stories? What's IB in London like? Any advice or criticism would be much appreciated since I'm a final-year student and facing some very important choices to make. Thanks!
Message: Please don't consider London. We've got enough dumb yanks over here already.
