Want to triple down advocate on choosing (tech) sales.

Hell even over tech tech...

Sales was so much easier and reading the toughest part of this made my soft enterprise sales self's eyes water...

Nice job expat. You're rocketing now 🔥

If you can sell you'll always make good money!

Had a friend who went into IB in Canada in the late 90s, was making money hand over fist. Then he realized what a grind of a life he was facing. Up and quit, spent the next 5+ years traveling the world. Thanks for sharing your experiences, hope this helps the next generation of toons.

Those BIWS interview guides (and industry modeling trainers were great).

Never went to IBD, but loved learning how to model Airlines, Pharmas, O&G, Real Estate, etc....

Actually a good skillset for anyone working in general business/finance imo.

Props to you man, you seem like a good decision maker when it counts.

Can’t wait for this to happen en-masse … huge opportunities with this that I still don’t think is fully appreciated on Main Street.

Look forward to hearing of your first e-com sale too.

Great read. BTB, when you say high paying W2, what would be the gross min $ on it?

Just listened to Fink discuss his ask to allow for tokenization of bonds and stocks. I think this will bring tons of value to the global economy and make things more efficient, reduce costs etc. Etherealized is also an interesting topic. Would love to hear more thoughts on this from others/BTB.
