What cartel is your boss laundering money for?

Commission is always relative to quota and is not a function of the gross value. I’m responsible for an org that does 200-250M a year. I made better commission on smaller numbers because you have an opportunity to blow it out occasionally. (We have teams that sell 2-2.5B, yes a “B”, annually. They don’t make any…

All the time, but usually through a top MBA program. Getting in at a decent IB is all about networking.

You’d likely be a great financial adviser then.

Sorry about the quality. Hopefully you’re sorry about calling it the OC.

The latter. Watch the SNL californians spoof where 1/2 their discussion is their routes. That’s 100% accurate

I like this “6" reflection in the window. Nice.

Actually, from what I’ve heard and read on media outlets such as NPR, the ex-military guys are usually the more restrained cops, especially those who have served in Iraq or Afghanistan.

One might argue that the US is a third world country that’s really good at pretending it’s a 1st world country.
