Has anyone here received an invitation from Yanik Silver of Maverick1000 to an entrepreneur focused retreat? It looks both intriguing and like a scam, and initial internet research is inconclusive.

Seeking a programmatic trader who is sick of working at terrible, big agencies.

I'm having a hard time discerning what is better in the long run for compensation.

Front office investment banking (where salary comp is lower for x amount of time but could balloon to the highest at time y)
Analytics or Cloud (where comp is higher or equal for x period and is potentially easier to stay in past time y)
Strategy (or other highly paid) consulting (where I can't really discern it from IB other than from a skills/subject matter perspective)

Could someone please share an opinion?

My anxiety and low self esteem have been bad. So bad I’m starting to second guess myself, talk fast during meetings, procrastinating and getting sidetracked easily. Even my memory has been bad.

I’ve been people pleasing.Saying I’ll do what people want to hear, nd falling short.I’m also a manager and I can feel my inability to lead.I’ll look into medicine. Just a vent
