<p>don’t use abbreviations on me! I had to google that, but yeah.</p>

<p>love that man, he died for you, he’s basically a cooler version of jesus</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>This makes you sound really entitled. And your last sentence makes no sense because it’s not clear what you’re referring to.</p>
<p>^ edit your post more Honesto, I’m sure you edited your post because you realized how stupid you sounded in calling me arrogant.</p>
<p>Calling someone’s potential dreams/future idiotic is more than a good reason to bash you.</p>
<p>I hope all of you realize that going to Harvard, Princeton, Yale, MIT, ect will not guarantee success at any level or even guarantee a job. I LOL at these people saying they will be go to Harvard and work for some prestigious fiance institution or go onto wall street. I hope you guys aren’t delusional into thinking a certain school or degree will get you any of this.</p>
<p>No offense, but if you knew the finance world well enough, and if you were going to HYPSM/Wharton and couldn’t’ land an IB job while intending to do so the whole time, thats considered pretty bad/failure for some. Especially with the grade inflation at alot of these schools, its not particularly hard to land a finance job from these schools when you have some firms recruiting at your campus and your campus only. If you’re not an idiot from HYPSM/W with no street smarts and didn’t major in Women’s studies or something, you can land a job.</p>
<p>^^Exactly. Kudos. A HYPSM degree is only good enough to tell people that you used to go there. Otherwise a Dartmouth, Brown, Caltech, or even a UC (GASP, a UC?!) Davis graduate has similar to equal opportunities as an HYPSM to land jobs. </p>
<p>Note, I say opportunities.</p>
<p>Right, and a high school graduate can land a job at McDonalds. Woopdie doo, that’s not the point. What you said about HYPSM is absolutely not true, there are firms that recruit exclusively at these unis. Of course Dartmouth, Caltech falls into this category, obv. Caltech for a different field, not as much Brown.</p>
<p>Yes, opportunities. But they are vastly, vastly different.</p>
<p>EDIT: I just need to keep my observations to myself and not post them, I feel bad for posting them now. Pick on me for editing this, whatever.</p>
<p>@lucky2010:
</p>
<p>You’re not interested in the possibility of eternal life? What?!? </p>
<p>
Glasses are awesome 
I like them too.
That won’t sell economically though. I mean space exploration is in the interest of about 2% of the humans around the world. War, military relations, weapons/vehicles and travel are more important. Robots capable of such feats can sell well for the money.
They’ll be much more in demand too.</p>
<p>
Hmm…a robot unspecialized in weaponry and military, maybe. I say maybe because robots fallen into the wrong hands can be very detrimental. Simple software overrides on the hands of maniacs can be very problematic.
But yeah, robots for kitchen work, cooking, laundry, etc is very practical. I like that.</p>
<p>I’d love to become a lawyer and work in a well respected law firm. After I make a good amount of money I think I’d want to be a self-employed writer. Maybe if there’s time I can start a charity.</p>
<p>Wow, I don’t think that it’s necessary to insult others based on their aspirations. We are each entitled to our own perceptions and goals.</p>
<p>I want to learn how to play chess and the piano.</p>
<p>Honesto:
Right, keep trying mate. Seems like you need to grow some <em>cough cough</em> balls. I have yet to spot the arrogance in my post at all. Seems like there is a penalty nowadays for getting internships and building good connections with family friends who are big in the finance industry. Oh wait, there’s not, and some kid with no idea about the industry is trying to tell me I’m an arrogant loser about possible realities (not idiotic or unrealistic as you would like to think). Don’t hate the player kid, hate the game. Go cry in a corner.</p>
<p>I edited out what I said (again) because I felt bad but he probably already saw it. Oh well.</p>
<p>Edit: He did.</p>
<p>1) Ooh, I need to grow some balls. Okay.
2) I guess you can’t see it? I can see it, especially in the second bolded part where you presume that your connections will help you rise to the top of the top of the top of the top.
3) Yeah…no…</p>
<p>Once again, you show your lack of knowledge about the finance world so you should maybe use google to learn some stuff.
Getting the job=who you know+who knows you. Of course GPA/Uni matters.
If you would really like me to break it down for you (since you obviously cannot comprehend what I’m saying no matter how many times I say it), here’s a more detailed version:</p>
<p>UCLA–>internships for summers (guaranteed by father’s friend)–>IB for 2 years–>Hedge Fund (father is/was a senior director of it, dad’s friend is the hedge fund manager) for however long it takes me till I have enough money to start working as a teacher and not worry financially. </p>
<p>Now, please tell me, where did I rise to the top of the top in this case? where did I rise to the top of the top in what I wrote before? Yep, don’t see it. If anything, I’m starting at the bottom of an IB as an analyst and working my way up.Of course I could go to B-school, but why would I? Why risk the 2 years of opportunity cost of losing potential salary when it’s not necessary?</p>
<p>I understand that in finance getting a job is a lot about your connections. I understood it the first time you said it too. It’s just that you seemed to be putting quite a bit too much emphasis on connections in the post I quoted earlier (maybe you weren’t but that’s the way I perceived it).</p>
<p>Hey can you guys take this argument elsewhere? Genre and Honesto?
I’ve had enough of this bullcrud in the collegeadmission section. Just go away and leave this thread in peace.
I actually like this thread.</p>
<p>It’s already kind of fizzled out, so you’re a bit late.</p>
<p>I hope to one day change the way we understand the human brain, and be able to give exacting, quantitative reasoning for neurological differences such as ADD/ADHD or autism. A lesser dream is to bring the world of digital physics to practical realization.</p>
<p>Remember me - I’m going to solve the homelessness problem in Los Angeles.</p>
<p>I want to go to Reed and study more than anyone else in the planet.I want to be with people who think in way I do(no arrogance).As an aspiring theoretical physics, I would like to research on quantum and electrodynamics and come with some electrifying results which would change the notion of this very universe forever.Having accomplished these things, I would like to enjoy my life to the fullest extent.Yes, fullest extent! Travel all the way round the world, bungee jump from a height so thrilling and killing, swim to the depths of pacific and if possible meet the little mermaid,have a cappuccion in the Central Perk and finally be with my family for ever.</p>
