What do you think of Wall Street analysts who work 90 hours a week?

I’d do that if the pay is good

I respect them but would not do the same

I’d rather work part time hours

I considered that a career path once. Technically it still is although I would likely end up with Nasdaq Stockholm, which is a much less intense 50-60 hours a week - and you can probably get it down to 40 with some negotiating.

I don't view it poorly. The core idea that people forget is that you do not go into it as a lifetime commitment. Realistically you will do some years at that pace and then either advance, change or retire. It is not a career you do for 40 years and if you are good at it you can tap out at any moment with a healthy amount of funds and plenty of contacts to set up a more relaxed, comfortable living.

Maybe not 90 hours a week, but probably making wellover a million $$ a year

That gives you very little personal time to enjoy life.
