    It sounds like a bad day at Private Equity is still better than a bad day at Investment Bank. I remember you told us you worked till 10 am in the morning one time at JP.

    Hey Ben, have you ever watched Paolo from Tokyo's "Day in the Life of" video series? Really awesome. He literally goes through the entire day with them from start to finish. It might be a cool idea to do something similar for the far, far future if possible, if you're thinking of making more Good/Bad days, A Day in the Life of-esque videos. Production value looks very high, however.
    But yeah, 4 hours sleep for days on end? No thank you.

      @@woldie7 Yeah, I was giving that a thought; like, how does Paolo get the authorisation to get into every work place? I'm not sure, but if there was a way I think it would look really, really cool to see things from the inside!

      @@barryaherne215 i think once Paolo does it a few times, he get's a bunch of examples to show to future places/people that he wants to work with (basically having a good track record / reputaion), which allows him to continue working with bigger and bigger places/people

      Definately analyst. Associate would be extremely hard and in reality not that realistic. Theres pretty much nobody that starts as an associate (ofc even with mba) that was able to skip the 2-3 years of being an analyst just to directly jump into associate
