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.

Hi goldsman hire mba graduate as associate or analyst ?

@mosasako4679 11 ай бұрын

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
