    Does anyone actually like audit?

    Not all finance roles are created equal. I would like to pressure the Oxford English dictionary for a change in the definition, dependent upon pronunciation: Finance (pronounced 'f-eye-nance') professionals work in Big 4 firms, retail banks and consulting firms. Finance (pronounced...

    Global Financial Crisis

    This October we are going to see a "Black Monday" style crash. At the very least we will see a three figure absolute drop in the dow. Mothers: 1. You are assuming that chicky_pie should adopt utilitarianism in her view of the falling dollar. It is ignorant of you to restrict her utility...

    grad salary banking

    It doesn't take any special skill to throw an unconscious person into the back of an ambulance. It doesn't take any special skill to teach a six year old how to add and spell 'cat'. It certainly doesn't take any special skill to pull me over for doing 100 in a 60 zone. The professions you...

    End of investment banking?

    The conversion of Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley into commercial banks is being proclaimed by some as the end of investment banking. I want everyone's predictions. What does Paulson's bailout mean for the banking industry as a whole? Will hedge funds suffer a critical blow in terms of...

    Re: grad salary in baking I know that boutique baking houses have cut bonuses so they are no better off than bulge brackets like Baker's Delight.

    Lehman Said to Prepare Bankruptcy as Buyers Withdraw

    I would have mixed reactions if I was a Lehman banker in the APAC region. Nomura has long had a 'Japanese only' glass ceiling in the upper echelons of management.

    Do finance courses at uni teach any tech analysis?

    I was taught one course including TA strategy. The treatment of TA was limited to those strategies which have been statistically proven to lose money after adjusting for transaction costs. An overwhelming proportion of academics will tow the party line and throw mud at tech analysis. An...

    Lehman Said to Prepare Bankruptcy as Buyers Withdraw

    As I said, bailouts prolong problems and induce moral hazard. They are often a bad thing for the overall market in the long term. I personally like bailouts, as they afford me an extra sliver of job security.

    Lehman Said to Prepare Bankruptcy as Buyers Withdraw

    I'm waiting for someone to post something along the lines of "communism works well in theory but not in practice". Well done. Attention to the uninformed: This cannot be a serious post. This is an elaborate troll post. Two people took the bait. I like the fact that a communism debate has...

    Goldman Sachs Intern/Graduate Program

    Midnight finishes aren't across all divisions at GSJBW. Traders, salespeople and structurers get out at far more reasonable hours most of the time. That said, you are still a slave to the Berry until about midnight.

    which part of my post were you referring to? Or are you asking 'how do you know' in an epistemological fashion? In which case, I side with Descartes and support internalism.
