[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son is an athlete at a top university. 75% of his friends are insanely wealthy He got an internship from a friends mother’s connection His friends also seem really nice and smart “Elite” colleges only require 4 classes a semester instead of 5 which is so much easier to manage .[/quote] What exactly is so special about the internship? Most people don’t understand there are so many tiers of finance, tech, and consulting. Getting a normal 9-5 job offer or internship from a friend’s parents is a really routine occurrence at hundreds of colleges.[/quote] For us he applied to 25+ internships, hired at 1 then it was cancelled. He literally would not have one without the connection. He would be doing summer camps counselor... if they don’t get cancelled again. Also they asked what salary he expected and they offered him double. What even is that? Rich people world. It routine at rich people lives not ours.[/quote]
