ACCURATE REPRESENTATION  |
|
Now what can I say about this book. If anyone wants to know what life in the Corporate Finance Department will be like, this book is about as accurate as it can get. Its not all about money, but having nerves of steel and a lot of determination. Liars Poker is about the Trading part of the book and represents an entirely different part of the bank. I did an internship in a bank and was unfortunate not to have read this book before doing so. It would have prepared me a lot better. For all you wanna be bankers, read this book, believe it to the T, and decide whether you wanna sell your soul. ENJOY!

Quick read for IB wannabies |
|
Nice book, quite enjoyable. I do believe that something in the book is exagerated. In IB you can be lucky and work reasonable hours (for IB of course) and maybe one weekend a month or be completely smashed and doing all-nighters and weekends with no rest at all, just like the authors. This is the difference between 70-80 hours and 100+. You can just randomly be the 100+ one or not!

A real eye opener for "soon to become investment bankers"  |
|
A great book for the ones entering investment banking and thinking they are going to change the world. Good writing style, great sense of humour. Provides a good inside how the IB works.
A real must if you are just about to start your carrier in the IB world.
