lol this is the most unbelievable horseshit you have posted. And yes I’m aware that you claim to have been an associate in Quinn Emanuel’s “matrimonial law” practice and that bullshit about you inventing a financial services product.

Btw, your claim to work this much is a self-own in light of the fact that we all know you’re a 250k in-house compliance loser.

Asked this before in the other thread but nobody answered.

What is the actual work product guys like this are producing in their 100 hours each week? Some sort of spreadsheet of costs/valuations? Powerpoint slides? Negotiating terms of the deal back and forth with the counterparties? ELI5.

To work 100 hours per week, you would have 4 hours left to: (1) sleep, (2) eat, (3) shower, (4) rest, (5) whatever else, socialize, talk to family, etc.

So basically he had to go without eating/sleeping/showering for several days or weeks.

(not a math masterman)

24 * 7 = 168 hours in a week

100 hours of work

168-100 = 68 hours left

68/7 = over 9.5 hours remaining every day for sleeping, eating, showering, commuting, etc.

That's a really stupid assumption imo. Anyone working 70+ hours a week is going to have some shit bleed into the weekend. 100 hour weeks in white collar jobs are usually "performative" ime and a lot of it is about ingratiating yourself to your Betters. One of the exceptions is in Game Development where there is a Crunch Time in the months before release.
