[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Local commuter shithole might hamstring you — but a smart kid will be fine at whatever top 100 university or top 100 LAC they attend. I firmly believe that. I’ve seen it happen over and over. This T25 or bust striver crap on every forum is written by insecure lunatics. I know dozens of rich families with extremely smart kids who didn’t give a damn about Ivies or even the state flagship U. They went to places like non selective LACs, SMU, Pepperdine or even non flagship state schools. They are all successful young professionals. Cream rises to the top. [/quote]

What about non rich kids, Buffy?[/quote]

Go to the local public university and study engineering or computer science — or nursing, accounting, teaching. Poor kids generally don’t become investment bankers most poor families don’t comprehend or care about investment banking or dream of living in Manhattan. [/quote]

Nurses, teachers and accountants aren’t setting the world on fire. They’re not developing life-saving drugs or becoming policymakers.

Are you kidding me? CPA is the most boring job out there. And they are considered the bottom feeders of finance. [/quote]
