Attending Dartmouth College, viewed as a Wall Street feeder school, hasn't tempted me to head down the profitable career path that is the world of finance. And yet it’s all around me: Friends meticulously prep for job interviews a year before the positions actually become available. Alums who go on to become analysts then find themselves sacrificing sleep, hobbies and anything resembling a social life. Cutthroat? Undoubtedly. Worth it? Depends on whom you ask. But today facing an era of change? You betcha. In today’s Daily Dose, we dive into Wall Street as it lives and breathes in this moment, the issues forcing much-needed change, the key players and whether Wall Street is still quite what it once was. Keep your eyes on the screen, because reading this newsletter is an investment you’ll want to make.
