It’s sweatervests versus suits. Posterboards versus Excel spreadsheets. A lot of money versus a lot more money…it all boils down to consultants versus investment bankers. Need to know more? The smackdown between the two professions is chronicled on a hip-hop style video
circulating Wall Street.
Ties and pocket protectors fly as both sides assert their dominance in the video, “Damn, It Feels Good to be a Banker.”
The video was posted Thursday on the wildly-popular blog Leveraged Sell-Out, which spoofs the antics of Wall Street’s ingenues.
The video helps promote a book written by Leveraged Sell-Out’s creator, Princeton graduate Amit Chatwani.
So who wins the hip-hop showdown? You decide–
Consultant: “You’re playing with Excel, doing nothing but grunt work. I’m analyzing both qualitative AND quantitative research (OH!).”
Banker: “I got a house in the Hamptons and a penthouse loft.
But you’ve got intangibles, is that why your skills are so soft?
