hi guys! I finally found some time to edit these clips - work has been so BUSY lately 🥲

The #1 question I always get is, how many hours do u work per week and what does a day to day life of an investment banker looks like. And the answer is always “it depends”. Here is a Monday in my work life in office. I rarely know what staffings/deliverables might pop up each day, so hours and workload vary drastically.

Hope you guys stay for more videos on my work life & personal exploration outside of work! Come join my journey as I navigate though the corporate world as a 23-year-old!

lmk if there are any videos you want to see next :)))

stay connected with me!

    So funny the little tricks they use to keep you later hours. Food after 6 and uber after 8. These people really are strategic
  • When you venture into the world of financial investment, it's important to understand some foundational principles
  • @chriswalter92
    Private equity sounds like a mechanism that extracts the most amount of value from a business, and transfers that wealth to the few general partners. Everyone loses - the business, the employees, the local consumers, the tax payers.... except for the general partners

    I used to work in advertising, which was the same "hustle culture" as you showed in your video. As you get older you'll eventually realize that spending these insane amount of extra hours is simply not worth it, since you're missing so many things in your personal life. The only good thing: as soon as you're in a "normal" paced job, you're resilient to stress that barely nothing throws you of the track anymore.

    As someone who has been in the work world for quite a few years the one thing I treasure most in a job is BALANCE!

    I appreciate these types of videos showing "a day in the life", especially from banking. I also appreciate the experience of a woman in banking, because, quite frankly, I do feel a woman will address undesirable aspects head-on like managing stress and mental health. I think, far too many of us men, shy away from this stuff, when we all are human and go through it. I like the videos. Keep them coming. All the best here from Canada.
  • I love how we can see what you work is all about. Many do a day or work in office but we don’t see anything. So this is very interesting. Thanks for showing. Keep it up!
  • @oliverwinter6764
    Brilliant video, showing the true realities for people interested in going into IB. It's a lifestyle choice!
  • @user-je6io6cv5d
    So nice of you to show true work hours! I am getting into corporate law and one thing that annoys me about tech/analyst/law influencers is they only show the good side of the job like the food stipend the fancy buildings etc they don’t actually show the ‘work’ part you have to put in long hours every day even weekends sometimes and it’s not for everyone
  • @saanviviee
    wow the fact that it's still light even after 8 must feel so safe
  • @aztecclient8231
    I'm about intern full-time for a huge firm in FiDi, and I really appreciate a fellow young person's perspective. I'm not quite doing IB but it's also gonna be a grind and it makes me feel better than a bunch of others are in my shoes. It's crazy how I just graduated HS less than 2 years ago and now I'm 20 and building a career in Finance. Wish you all the best!
  • @user-vl2pg6mt7r
    I like a lot this video. it is very important to show the real life, sometimes everything you find in Youtube are perfect lives, no very real!! Great video!! 🔝🔝
  • @michaelh181
    Reminds me of my life in my 20s. But I think it was worth it hustling constantly for a few years to set myself up a good financial and knowledge foundation that is still benefiting me. These days I work 20-30 hours a week.
  • @sage1084
    Someone I coffee chatted mentioned watching your channel and decided to take a look during a quick break before midnight grind. I used to work at the same bank as you I believe - security at door before even ID swipe, banks’ hotel right next door, black car service after 10, 2hr bookable beds? Surprisingly, it was nice to be reminded of that time and gave me the motivation to work through this dataroom. Sad to see the din budget is still same after 4 years tho
  • @syzrixii
    first vlog from ur channel that i've watched! totally had fun watching it!!! :D def appreciate the quick explanation of whats happening (as someone who doesnt work in the inv banking) thanks for that! <3 can't wait for more vids from uuu~
  • @Quit3Cut3
    I work 13 hour days, but only 3 days a week. 12 hours at work 1 hour commute for both getting there and home. I could never have the sanity to have a job like this. Bless your heart
  • @selenahuang0924
    thx 4 ur video. its so lucky to have one for ppl interested in IB and u r doing it while u get so much workload. appreciate that!
  • @yooein
    This was my early twenties. Soooo glad I'm out of this phase. Hang in there❤ Thanks for sharing. It's a good reminder for me what not to do again. lol
  • @CJ-fh5xq
    I work in the back office at a Wall Street bank as a Data Analyst. Thankfully my hours are pretty normal besides that odd meeting with the India or Australian colleagues. I am never on call since I just run regular schedule reports and respond to special request. Not too bad of a role but looking more into the Tech side and eventually become a Sales Engineer or Account Executive.
  • @isaacespinal131
    I really appreciate your videos/ Tik Toks as a current summer analyst. Excited to keep watching.
