One glaring omission from the previous post on Wall Street Myths was the topic of drugs. It deserves a full post. Over under says you’ll do them. Instead of wasting time debating about drugs, here’s the breakdown so you can choose as you wish.

Party Favors

Cocaine: This is the real winner here in terms of a drug that can help you get what you want, attractive girls and enough energy to stay awake. As mentioned previously, the first 2 years in finance are the worst so this is usually when you’ll be dabbling more in cocaine.

Pro’s: Girls who do coke are generally thinner, crazier and easier to sleep with. The oversight on cocaine is much lower than crack even though it is the same drug and carries a much lower sentence if you’re busted for possession (don’t worry no one “saves” coke like they do with weed). It is also easy to come by. Finally, your boss will not care remember that first day on the job “Now I’m not telling you not to do drugs just don’t let it take over your life”. Understood.

Con’s: Expensive, $60 for a gram, $200 for an 8-ball for quality when you first get into the “scene”. In addition, it is much more likely you will become addicted to this drug versus other narcotics such as weed, mushrooms, or extacy. Supposedly, over the long-term it can damage your ability to have sex.
