Animal House meets Liar's Poker in this hysterically funny, often unbelievable, and absolutely, positively true account of life at DLJ, one of the hottest investment banks on Wall Street. First you have Kimmy who has no idea how she even got accepted to this prestigious business school much less what she is doing there. But one thing she knows for sure is that with the ratio of men to women she should definitely be able to snag a husband. It reveals a lot of the discrepancies between what people think the banking jobs are and what they actually are – instead of engaged intellectually to come up with good investment ideas, you spend most of your time copying pasting and reusing previous writings to create pitch books that no one really reads, instead of “living large” you’re barely living – getting no sleep, no sex, no meaningful social life just doesn’t fit the definition of a good life no matter how much money you’re making, so on and so forth with many other examples of how reality departs from expectation, ranging from the corporate travelling experiences to meeting with clients (the ideal would be to meeting with clients around the world to understand their business, but the crazy schedule only makes you so tired that no information can get in you head, and you learn nothing about the business, and visiting 7 countries in 5 days shouldn’t be called travelling.) I enjoyed this book. It was a light and easy read. Sometimes you just need to read a book without having to put alot of thought into it. It was written from four different POVs and the author did a good job of relaying the different characters personalities.

My father taught me many years ago not to believe my own bullshit. Well, we didn't heed this sage advice, and we were so deep in our own garbage that we were suffocating underneath its weight. All of us, as associates, made ourselves believe that we were different and special, We would soon learn the real truth., But until then, we felt great about ourselves and our choice to careers." Parker writes intense storylines that anyone can relate to. Her characters are complex, with long and sometimes turbulent pasts that they have overcome, that still continues to affect their present. . . . I cannot wait to see where she takes this new series.”—Fresh FictionRuss is convinced leaving his girlfriend behind was the right move if he intends to take the business world by storm.

The authors depicted fairly how things go in the IB industry: From dealing with clients to supervisors, and even give guidelines on how to be a good sycophant to the printing team; after all your deliverable depends on them. MONKEY BUSINESS' is the second book by Sarah Mylnowski that I have read, the first being `AS SEEN ON TV', and while I didn't love `AS SEEN ON TV' I did really enjoy her writing style. Now her fourth novel, `MONKEY BUSINESS' brings that same style to the table but with what is in my opinion a better story line and more likeable characters. De un tiempo a esta parte me ha dado por los libros de inversiones, bancos y delitos monetarios en general. Quizá sea porque una vez yo estuve a punto de entrar en el negocio de las opciones y futuros, aunque finalmente me quedé como estoy, pobre pero haciendo física.

The ideal time to read this book would probably be when one is still in B-School or about to enter one. It is a classic, no-holds-barred account by a couple of Ivy League investment bankers about their journey to and through the "glamorous" world of banking on Wall Street that culminated with each of them finding the exit door just in time to salvage their sanity. The book is an absolute laugh riot at places and the colourful language throughout keeps the reader engaged and is perhaps required to do justice to the high-adrenaline, stressed universe the authors are attempting to describe. If you have the choice, please travel light and leave your buggy or scooter at home. There will be no cloakroom facilities and all buggies and scooters must be left at the buggy park by the entrance. het leest erg vlot, maar lijkt soms ook erg snel geschreven te zijn, soms erg vergezocht, soms erg slordig

Coming Cleanprovides a realistic, sometimes heartbreaking glimpse at the simultaneous frailty and strength in a relationship.”—Heroes and Heartbreakers Cassidy is aching to reignite their connection. In steamy assignations in strange places, she and Shaw live out their most intimate desires—and reveal their deepest secrets. But as Shaw works overtime to sign a superstar athlete, a corporate reshuffling could be a game-changer. Can Cassidy and Shaw save their relationship and have it all—a career, family, and passion that never quits? Which is what Kimmy, Russ, Jamie, and Layla are supposed to be studying for at the University of Connecticut. Jamie at least has serious academic intent. Well, until the first day of preterm when he develops a not-so-secret crush.Four twenty-somethings are attending University of Connecticut Business School for different reason and you shift between their points of view so that each gets equal time. These four very different personalities meet and interact (often) on several level and exude normalcy and run of the mill. The unrelenting, nearly 24X7 donkey work that junior level investment bankers are supposed to immerse themselves in with nary a care for food or sleep is enough to send the sanest to the madhouse. While once may already have read enough accounts of how I-banking looks and feels like, the vivid and gory details in the book are enough to fill one with absolute horror. In the end, while the authors find their salvation by jumping to the buy-side, not everyone is able and/or willing to do it. Layla: Obsessive compulsive and clueless. Her chapters were the most boring thing to read until probably the very end; this is the same time she begins to really feel like a character. Jamie is the comedian. He’s not good-looking but his personality makes up for it as he’s funny and smart. I liked how he was initially crazy about Kimmy then later lost interest in her after falling for Layla. However, I thought that the whole family complications thrown in were out of place and didn’t serve much of a purpose. Plus, as much as I enjoyed reading about him and Layla, they just seemed to end up together in such a strange way. It’d have been better if they were friends for a longer period of time before getting together.
