This is why you are losing money.....you don't know who you are dealing with. No one here talks in terms of "laks". You should quit options....it's too sophisticated and stick to olde fashioned investing/trading ...maybe even just etfs

Idk wtf a Lac is, but think about it this way. If institutional traders are making money, who does it come from? You. Buy indexes and you can’t lose

Additional Posts in Investment Banking - IBD

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.
