What exactly is "Working on Wall Street"
So I'm a senior in high school, and in the past month, two pairs of 100$ shoes have been jacked from my locker in the lockeroom. I figured that it must be either someone in the period before me or someone in my period because everytime I've shown up late or missed PE at all, my shoes go...

My boss and I have a lot in common. We both have wives (that spend too much money), kids (that make it all worth it), houses in the burbs (that we can barely afford), and importantly- a love for scotch and cigars, (preferably enjoyed at the same time). It's a goddamn crime that FiDi...

New to learning and loving this industry I don't quite understand the big picture. We have coverage groups that focus on a specific industry. These groups actively help raise equity, debt and initiate M&A's for companies they cover. This group pitches but doesn't actually...

I applied online for an experienced associate position in MBB. I didn’t hear from them for about 1.5 months. The resume was under review but not on file. I was following this firm on linkedin. Fortunately, I saw an update from the associate of that firm asking for resumes for this position. I...

Can anyone here tell me what the energy industry thinks of Dr. Kent Moors of Duquesne University? Specifically: how is he regarded by crude oil traders? I ask because he's increasingly on Fox News preaching visions of doom and gloom. All fine and well. Sometimes, as in the case of...

Hi everybody, I signed a contract with Saudi Aramco that pretty much covers the expenses of my university education. I am supposed to repay that by working with them for 5 years OR pay it off. The latter is somewhat out of question (I hear it's somewhere near $1 million), and the former...

I came across a blog with very specific notes on the class Peter Thiel is currently teaching at Stanford. I've been going through a class lecture a day when I get some down time in the office.

Just got back from a quick lunch break, first one i've had in 6 months not at the desk. I'm a 25yro quant trader/geek at a well known hedge fund in NYC and I pull in around $250k-$500k, all in, depending on the year. I was just at a bar downtown and this well known 23yro actress came in... Just got a famous actresses' number. Would a young trader have any chance with a hot rich actress?
A common thread we see on WSO from time to time is regarding working for banks in their regional offices.

If its subtle / small / at... Add "Organ Donor" to my resume?
