I Want to Make Banker Dollars

  Ex-Bitter /   July 30, 2008 /   Columns, Lawyer /   9 Comments


My friend is 30, works at Goldman and made three million dollars last year.  I almost vomited when I heard this.  I’m the same age, smarter and work harder.  What am I missing?

Not missing a damn thing.  He went into a profession where people make tons of money–and fast.  You went into a profession where people don’t.  PS–Why are you so sure you’re smarter than he is?  I mean, he made three mill last year and you probably made, what, 200k?
