[image]( Hey {NAME}, Dive deep into financial modeling and valuation in our intensive [2-day FMV bootcamp](=) this October 14-15. A value-driven weekend awaits! -Patrick TOP DISCUSSIONS 1) [Lack of Talent in Commercial Real Estate or Gen Z Issues?]() - "I have to ask though, do you think if you were paying these kids more money that they would be more excited? Inflation has dramatically increased over the past couple of years, and salaries have not. I understand most people in brokerage making nothing in the first couple years, but times have changed and itâs not as feasible for people to do that nowadays..." 2) [Tech Misconceptions]( - "The comparison between ib and swe is dumb, but the comparison between tech and finance isn't. IB and SWE have drastically different skillsets and interests, and realistically the 2 shouldn't be compared as it's like comparing a consultant and a doctor. As for finance and tech, there's roles in the 2 with a great deal of overlap. In finance you have quants and backend engineers building out the platforms for these companies, while at tech firms you have corp dev, corp finance, and product management..." 3) [A Reflection: What I Learned from being âCounseled Outâ of MBB after 1-Year Post-Undergrad]() - "Your internal reputation matters, and leadership does talk- If you do well, people will like you and want to work with you again (and vice versa). When managers try to staff their teams, they will 100% ask your prior EM about your feedback. It literally takes 2 minutes to go to the companyâs internal site, find all the previous managers youâve worked for, and ping them 'How was it working with x?...'â FINANCIAL MODELING SKILLS GET YOU PAID [image]() Attention all financial wizards and career climbers, are you ready to take your modeling skills to the next level?

It's like having a sleek boat in a choppy sea of negotiations; the activity tracking is sharp, and the Q&A functionality is a time-saver. Plus, getting key folks on board is a breeze. Thereâs something thrilling about a tool that echoes the pace of a supercar." 6) [How to Build a Real Estate Empire Today?]() - "Be born into a wealthy family with an extensive network. Go to a private school and then a top target school to continue this network. Join an IB firm or something similar to get the required 'prestige' experience. Go on to join a global elite REPE for 5-10 years to get experience and then leverage your network to start a fund/real estate empire in your field. If you didn't do the above my suggestion would be to aim lower and be happy. You don't need a real estate empire and honestly the only people that can pull this off tend to be the most 'elite' people anyway...." 7) [Streamlining Deal Docs: My Experience]( - "This platform takes one worry off your plate in a sea of deal preps. Storing crucial files becomes a thoughtless process. The setup is a charm, keeping everything intact without digging into your pocket. Makes the whole process efficient and keeps everyone pleased. Recommend!" 8) [Tech Work at Banks Sucks](=) - "There is simply less opportunities to learn from higher ranking engineers because most of the for lifers at banks aren't as talented (albeit they are usually hard working) as in tech companies. Many of your peers at the banks will be people who weren't able to secure jobs at tech firms and settled for a bank, with hopes of leveraging it to get into FAANG. Many actually take the dreaded amazon over banks to get the learning experience and be able to leverage to get a better tech job...." 9) [Why do People Say it's Easier to Start as a Developer?]() - "Development takes a lot of vision, relationship building, execution, and luck. Often, at the opportunity cost of a W2 salary. One person brings more money, âgray hair.â The other person brings energy, experience, execution ability, vision...."
