    Holy shit, I can't believe I watched a 1 hour 25 minute video! This was so high quality. Everytime u asked him the question I just thought that is exactly what I would ask him as well! It was so easy to understand yet so insightful. I am trying to break into Bain and I am glad he said that was his target as well haha

      Instead you should just think about what really brings you joy in life and gives back to the community and pursue that instead of sacrificing your soul, dignity, imagination, and passion for a job simply for money and prestige

      @@CameronLasmoreconsidering you need money to live in this world, and everything is getting more expensive every year, this isn’t a fool proof argument. No one cares about your passions if you’re making $55k at McDonald’s. You can’t survive. Focus on building your career and money first, then find your passions.

    Please add in REAL work or RWH (real working hours)
    It’s not bad but it adds some way better visibility. If somebody is at work or working for 14 hours - out of those 14 how many hours are actually done minute to minute work. Not relaxing
