Banker on Banker

Hey, you may be a banker, but you’re still unique. Not so, as this ex-investment female banker says; i-banker guys are all about “models and bottles.” We challenge her assertions.

It’s always great when the Look Book features a banker cause then you know it’ll get forwarded around. Lauren (unemployed) has the following to say about you and your brethren:

“I tend to stay away from investment-banking guys because I now know exactly what those guys are like. They’re like, ‘Multibillion-dollar deals turn me on, that’s all I need from life.’ They all have this saying: ‘Livin’ the life with models and bottles.’ They don’t change before they go out because they think girls dig them in their suits: ‘Oh yeah, I’m a banker, my ’Berry’s blowing up.’ It’s not appealing. “

Our challenge to Stereotype 1: Who says “Multi-billion”? And who living in the modern era would say the phrase “turn me on”?

Our challenge to Stereotype 2: OK, this one is a bit challenging. Sure we’ve got that pesky video record of a certain junior banker saying something suspiciously similar. So we can only say that the “livin’ the life” part sounds a bit awkward. Like in what situation would you say that entire phrase together?

Bob: What are you up to?
Stan: Oh you know, livin’ the life with models and bottles”??????

Our challenge to Stereotype 3: But wait, if bankers don’t change before going out, then when do they don the famed banker stripey? Can’t have both, honey. Suits or stripey, stripey or suits?

Feeling insulted? Then speak up.
