I do not believe this and it seems disingenuous for an author to quote that as fact without at least a little bit of scrutiny.

- fragmede 2y agoInvestment bankers work 100 hour per weeks as needed during deals, which is how you get 20 hour days. 60-80 is the usual pace though. Investopedia has an article on this but there are plenty more. That isn't proof this particular person did this, but should at least make it believable. https://www.investopedia.com/articles/professionals/111715/day-life-investment-banker.asp https://www.investopedia.com/articles/professionals/111715/d...
- csvm 2y ago100 hours per 5-day week is a lot different than 100 hours per 7-day week.

- Wytwwww 2y ago> , but should at least make it believable. How is it physically possible? No person could survive working 20 hour per day for any at least slightly extended amount of time without some extreme consequences. I assume they weren't actually working all the time but just basically "living" in the office an not actually engaging in anything productive for more than 10-12 hours. Then again.. I'm sure that I don't really have what it takes to be an investment banker nor do I know how being hopped up on amphetamines all the time feels so maybe they do actually "work" >100 hours per week.
