Does mentioning BX scare you? And please enlighten me what in my advice makes it 'advice'. I don't go on talking about things I don't know. Maybe you can try to argue against my basic, but still sound, advice. I'll reproduce it here:

"I like your earlier points. But I think the common generic FO banker at a top 5 bank, say GS, MS, JPM, BoA, Barx, I forgot the ranking anyway, has a better chance than the Harvard Law top law firm associate, in entering Blackstone.

If you want to end up in finance, start in finance."
