Author of Bitter Investment Banker" Email Out With Book
[bank.jpg]
Ex-investment banker and David Bledin, author of the [9]Bitter
Investment Banker email that induced muffled SFW cries of joy the
world over, is out with a book about -- you guessed it -- the travails
of junior bankerdom.
Were about half-way through [10]Bank and its pretty funny; even you
lawyers out there may feel compelled to raise a fist in white collar
slave solidarity. (SPOILER: a love interest is a lawyer) Were reading
that one and the Lazard book, and will post reviews in about a year.
So Bledin (24 yo) and that preppie on `roids Dana Vachon (28 yo) make
two under-30 yos ex-cubelifers who capitalized on their banking
experiences with books and film deals and are livin [11]large.
Envious, yet? I am.
Knowing the readers of this site, Im sure some of you are ready with
fingers poised to flame one/both of these guys.
Lets do a little culled-from-internet compare/contrast to see whos a
more legit representative of i-bankers:

A Jew and a Catholic? Nope. Neither one cuts the mustard. Sorry.

Thanks for the post! Im glad youre liking the book. Im really not a
douchebag, at least not while sober, though I do have a fairly ethnic
nose.
Just thought Id mention that my publisher is giving away free copies
of BANK to junior analysts. The only catch is that you have to be the
first analyst from your respective financial institution (note the
broad categorization; doesnt have to be an i-bank) that e-mails me at
[23]free_mumbles@hotmail.com with your name / company / mailing
address, and you cant be pulling any detours to PE or hedge funds
before the end of May, because otherwise you wont be around to
collect the book.
The idea is that youll then read it, chuckle a bit, and recommend it
to all your colleagues, paving the way for BANKs literary domination.
Thats it. No fine print. E-mail me for your copy.
