<p>ok so I am very interested in investment banking, it sounds like my kind of job, I've been told u work like 16 hrs a day but u get tremendous pay.
I read on another thread that u start off at 165k a year and "if u last" u can be making over 1m in 10 years. Can someone explain the job to me, it sounds funny because of that "if u last", I mean why wouldn't u last? Is it like stocks or something. And also someone said sonethin about it being a trading job, whats do u mea by that?</p>

<p>Ok ty for your time</p>

<p>It's not rocket science. The hard part are the hours and (sometimes) the office politics/BS. Proper spelling, however, is required. :)</p>
