Oh yeah ? I know quite a few personally.



Look, I know some too. But I know far more who didn’t get that, and I suspect you do too. I think we both know that the odds are small.



Actually, I know people who were hired into IB in down years ( 2002-2005) and are still there. We must be keeping very different circles of network. How do you know the OP won’t be a superstar?



Oh, I don’t know, the odds perhaps? After all, we could just as easily presume that the guy is going to become a millionaire by winning the lottery and hence the guy will never have to worry about going to college at all.

Look, we have to go by what is likely to happen. We advise people not to smoke not because everybody who smokes will suffer from bad health but because it is likely that you will suffer bad health. Heck, I knew a guy who smoked several packs a day and still lived to be over 90 (and who died not from disease but from a car accident). But does that mean that smoking is safe? Heck, even he was advising his own family members not to smoke.
