Not everyone in ibd is as vicious as you think. If you actually know where the revenue from ibs come from, you will target the right group.

very interesting times we are in. i still think that investment banking is a great place to start out because of all the skills that you learn. just don't be too used to spending so much money and save your bonus for a rainy day

It's times like this that makes man on the street like you and I feel better. IBankers have been having it too good for too long. At least we are all equal now. To the IBankers who have been treating us peasants as peasants, driving their fast cars and snatching our girls.....every dog has its day! ha.

Yet another reason to always strive to be a cut above one's peers. When the job market gets worse, only the best can survive. Networking and building and demonstrating expertise remain key.

this is jux the start of a crisis. a global contagion which is, at best will be short and sharp; at worst a long protracted depression.

noone will be spared. banks and financials are the first to be hit and adjust, followed by the other sectors and lastly common folks on the street.

im not very optimistic about the outlook for sg in the next 2-3 years. call me a pessimistic bear but history, facts and figures do not lie.

Well, maybe it's time for new IBs to come up. Investment banking will always come and go, cos people are innately greedy.
