"Those are both nice paths. How do you rate this one? johnnycan

UPenn history BA -> nonsensical self-created liberal arts masters at UChicago for 3 years (hiding out from unemployment I guess after a tough showing at UPenn..) -> execution trading at zero-prestige Chicago sweatshop for 6 years -> 2 years of full time "extracurricular" activities trying to look well-rounded for MBA programs (fluffed up 6-month "consulting" gigs and volunteering) (around this time you ask Autoadmit or WSO if you should pretend to be gay on your MBA apps and write a story about coming out to your religious family) -> dinged everywhere, forced to attend Columbia's EMBA without employer sponsorship -> Moves on campus and joins like 7 full-timer clubs, goes as far as explicitly claiming to be a full-timer on Linkedin, and somehow goes on FT-MBA retreats as an EMBA student according to a classmate -> Big Tech (the orange one) FP&A -> swiftly PIP'd -> Finance for some chain of walk-in clinics (???) -> Unemployed for 2 years but spins it as "head of finance" for a (made up) "stealth startup" that you can't name now even though it's been like 4 years since you started there (must be top secret) -> Finance for a boring computer hardware retailer where your boss's boss is a Cal State Sacramento accounting undergrad alum who's like 8 years your junior. And you've been a legendary troll known as Brady4MVP, MBAVSMFIN, JJC, or JJC1122 on 3 or more online forums the whole time. And I think you're 43 in November - JJC-11-22.

Prestigious?"
