People looked down on my choice to go to SMU. They said "oh you chose SMU over UCSB? Isn't UCSB ranked higher?"
People questioned my choice to go to business school. They said "Undergraduate business school is a waste of time, you are better off getting a well rounded undergraduate degree then getting your MBA"
People didn't like the fact that I chose Finance as my major. "Oh so you are all about the money? Accounting is a better major. Good luck getting a job with a Finance degree, I had a nephew major in Finance and he still hasn't found anything."
People couldn't understand why I chose to work in Houston rather than New York. "Houston is an awful city"
All of this bullshit drives me. I know I am going to be successful. I have an internship with a Bulge Bracket Investment bank. I am going to make over $18,000 this summer working 10 weeks. I am going to get a full time offer and be making around $120,000 right out of school. I am then going to have opportunities to move into Private Equity or Hedge Funds and make double that.
"Ohhh Investment Banking... kiss your life goodbye, you will be working brutal hours"
Shut the fuck up you doubter. Yet another person questioning my decisions, I love it.
