I have no dog in it. But are you this insecure and is it so hard to lead your life? I feel pity for you and for your children. They can’t possibly learn good lessons of life from you.
What the hell’s wrong with these DCUM people who think Wall Street is the only honest game in town? An honest living at Walmart can’t possibly be good lessons of life - not even for the Madoff’s of Wall Street?
If you are not the person who posted about WashU grads to become Walmart greeters, I guess you literally take the meaning of what you read and don't have the basic commonsense to read between the lines. If you are the person who posted it, please don't display anymore of your lack of intelligence.
THere you go again, doubling down on your shitty attitude towards people. Your parents might be working at wall mart in their old age. Your young kids will learn great life lessons working there. You and your spouse may end up there in your old age. Sam Walton worked there all his life. You shop there for made in China products to save money. No shame in Walmart game.
Ok, you do you.

The overwhelming majority of the undergrads heading into banking have family already in banking; from dads to older brothers to uncles or grandpa. I'd estimate 75% are already connected, 20% are cute elbowy gals with at least a 3.5 GPA, and 5% are URMs with at least a 3.3 GPA.
I bet this list would barely change if you sorted for New England and Tri-State private prep school alums per capita.
Most ORMs at Feeders that go into IB or S&T don’t have banking parents.
There's much more to Wall Street/finance than IB or S&T.
The other poster is correct. So many kids going into Wall Street in some capacity have families who have a history of working on Wall Street or in financial roles. It's not restricted to the Ivies but it's also why you see plenty of kids from LACs heading to New York to work in finance/banking/consulting. Because their fathers worked in finance.
It's not a bad career track because it delivers plenty of rewards. Even if you end up leaving NYC or never going to NYC and working in finance in other cities. It's a great way to get into the six figure income track pretty early on and have a comfortable life. And that's why the fathers (and now mothers) increasingly direct their kids onto similar tracks.
I have no idea what ORM means but I have two children currently at top colleges and the overwhelming majority of their friends going into investment banking are from finance families. As I said, that can mean a parent, an older sibling, cousins, prep school network, uncles, grandpa. These are overwhelmingly NOT random middle class kids from random flyover suburban towns stumbling into banking or being groomed for banking by the college.
I disagree with this. I have experience within my own family to the contrary. One relative went to a no name college (his dad is a janitor) and got in at JP Morgan. Another, from BOston College, got in at one of the investment bank management programs but hated it and became a Marine in one of the elite branches. My unhooked husband came from a state school here in VA (not UVA) and is hedge fund manager. The common theme is extraordinarily hard working and being a very, very competitive person.

These Wall Street posts over the last year are clearly by the same dork troll who also posts about "big law" in random threads. I'm guessing it's a 40-something incel man who thinks he's being hip with circa 2005 lexicon. He likely used to post in dealbreaker and above the law comment sections over 15 years ago.

Personally i don't think going into wall street is something that is as highly sought after from the very top students these days

Not sure what you have against Walmart employees. They are essential employees. People like you who push their kids to Wall Street should seek therapy.
You, your spouse, and your children are more than welcome apply for and get employed as Walmart greeters. I will sure acknowledge your greeting if and when I visit the Walmart store where you will work. All the power to you and your family.

Right lol. But I think Stanford and MIT students focus mainly on tech.
More of a knock against Yale and Princeton. We all know that Stanford and MIT dominate tech, so we have an impression that HYP would be the top Wall Street feeders. But that doesn't seem to be the case.
I mean 5th and 8th are pretty good.
It's kind of mediocre when it's HYP and people (at least on DCUM) have an expectation of them to be dominant in every field, when in reality, they aren't...
