If you would be a PE associate over being a tech billionaire at 25, then you're a fucking tool. No shits given if it's at BX or KKR. You know how relatively unimpressive being a PE associate is, in the grand scheme of things (compared to the people who have broader worldviews and potential than IB/ PE)? Plus how many MF PE associates just burn out and leave finance and never do anything else prestigious in their lives

Who cares about being a billionaire if you can’t brag about being in Private Equity.

Harvard/Stanford/MIT CS -> YCombinator/Thiel Fellow -> AI Startup -> Billionaire at age 25

Or

Harvard Econ -> GS TMT -> KKR PE Associate at age 25

Do you realize how far away a KKR PE Associate is from $1,000,000,000?

According to interns on WSO, KKR PE Associates might as well be a better outcome than tech billionaire since it's more "prestigious"

I've only met one KKR person and he did leave KKR and raised $200M for his startup company.
