Speaking of required reading material before joining the industry, I have another one to add to the mix: FIASCO: The Inside Story of a Wall Street Trader. About life on the derivatives desk at MS back in the day. I learnt what it means to 'rip your f**king face off'.

most ppl want money and no job, but throw enough money they still come.
now in sg its not like if u choose some low paying job guarantee will have work life balance or good boss, many low paying pmets are bully by foreign boss, work long hours and backstab by colleagues anway.
if its gonna be a sheet job, might as well take the $$$ with the sheet... at least u get compensated for it

WTF? Seriously, don't make everyone out to be like you.
Not everyone is as shallow and pathetic. There are many, many better and far more rewarding careers.

Chill it yo.
This forum does have a disproportionately large no. of participants asking banking / FI related career questions, so in that sense I would say yes most would probably accept if they were offered a job in investment FO.
Of course whether they can get it or if they can perform once they get in is another different story...
