^Dude, WTF! That has got to be the biggest heap of garbage I’ve seen in a long time. Are you sure you’re not itera?
I volunteer plenty. I give money to good causes. I even helped a kid graduate high school a few years back after his father was murdered. These types of activities help out those less fortunate often through no fault of their own.
I always ensure my work is done correctly and completely. I have an MBA, CFA, BSD.
I’m far some anything you said.
I’ll also add that I don’t brag or mention these sorts of things often. I don’t use them as resume filler other than one bullet point under my interests. Volunteering is not used as a means in my corporate work, but it is a part of who I am as a person which I believe speaks to my character.
Yeah but you’re different because you’re in a different stage of the career. You’re already at the finish line! I’m talking about the people who are in the first 2-5 years.
Reminds me of how the USA wants to give foreign aid to terrorist countries when we have our own shit to deal with first.

former_trader: brain\_wash\_your\_face:Heck, at my old firm I used to get my but kicked by 45 year old PMs in squash, great networking experience however humiliating it was.
This reminds me of a not so pleasant experience a few years back. I once beat a BSD at my firm at tennis (something like 6-3, 6-1) and he took it really badly. Didn’t think people take these things so seriously especially that no one else witnessed the match. I was told afterwards to let people senior to you in the professional world to beat you but that’s just not in my blood. I’d rather meet over lunch than laydown in a competitive match.

He was a chess player.
Only if it is a Top 3 charity. If not, hacksaw.
