  • In this video I give you guys a glimpse into my daily routine as a risk analyst for a large investment bank in New York City. The lifestyle of working a 9-5 job may not be as glamorous as of a lot of other New York City videos make city life out to be, but I'm perfectly happy waking up every day just to be able to work towards my goals.
    Do consider subscribing if you enjoyed the video! I'll be posting more finance, self-improvement, lifestyle content and more videos about my journey as I navigate the corporate and creator world.

    I like how real you are “I can’t afford $7 Starbucks everyday” sometimes corporate life isn’t all that glam as people post

      ​@@aaron_yao wow, great! Could you please make a video about what is your educational background, qualifications that you have, what skills employers look for in financial analysts, are those skills rather technical, etc. What can you suggest to a highschooler to do to make sure they have relatively safe future in terms of employment in financial realm? I'm a highschooler myself and want to get into this career path, that's why I'm actually asking you these questions, hopefully I'll get answers to them from you. Have a nice day!

    In terms of ab exercises, just treat your abs like any other muscle group, so 2-4 sets of 5-10 reps. My personal ab workout is;
    4 sets of 8-10 reps on cable crunches
    3 sets of 8 reps for cable woodchops
    3 sets of 10 reps for russian twists.
    Great video nonetheless!

    When was the lunch prepared? I can fully relate on the repetitiveness as I am in a mid management level in fin-tech but I guess we all need a side hustle or a passion that can potentially make us enough to get out of this rat-race.

    • @aaron_yao
      @aaron_yao  4 месяца назад

      I think I made it the night before. And absolutely, although I really enjoy working in this industry, I think having a side hustle can potentially open up more options if one day you decide to pivot.

      80-100hr weeks are generally true for investment banking analysts. On the S&T side it is closer to 60hrs/week.

    • @aaron_yao
      @aaron_yao  2 месяца назад

      That's definitely something I hear from a lot of people moving far from their hometown to a new city. I was lucky in that NYC is close to my home state of CT so I knew a good amount of people in the city, but my advice to you would be to seek out communities based on your interests. You can look on Facebook or Meetup and try to find some friends that way. Best of luck!
