If you're talking about the Duke case, you must be kidding. Follow the news much?

BTW, the perpetrator of the hoax is in jail now for murdering her boyfriend.

The personal attributes DO help. I don't think they are going to replace investment bankers with automation anytime soon, especially when it comes to pitching clients and selling on roadshows.
This is what he said: "I got a job in the trader training program for new MBA grads. Funny Morgan the traders were all mainly white Irish Catholic who went to an Irish College and played sports and had connections."

In the heyday of trading, he would have been right. But not today.

Investment bankers - Similar career headwinds. Deals are going to fewer and fewer banks, there are fewer corporate clients to deal with and banks can no longer use their balance sheets to bait for large M&A/IPO deals (or it will impact their RoRWA). Meaning, there are now fewer jobs for dealmakers and advisory as well. Banks are paring down and going back to their old lending and saving business models.

I am sure WASPS will blame Jews and Asians for the reason they can't get jobs on Wall St anymore

Those Duke players were railroaded by a corrupt DA and a women who made the entire story up, I believe the same lady is in prison for killing her boyfriend now. Moral of story never trust a stripper.

OK thanks I admit I wasn't focusing on his entry level job in my post. So if he couldn't have gotten in on the entry, then he wouldn't have ended up going to Tokyo, etc., etc. You're right.

Actually I think she was a hooker and the boys stiffed her and then she claimed rape.

But it does show folks in GC hang out with minorities
