Years ago I remember hearing news that Entourage creator Doug Ellin was creating a show like Entourage, but about hedge funds. Now that is a show I would watch.
Unfortunately, that was way back in the pre-Lehman world and Doug Elin’s hedge fund show hasn’t been heard from since.
Well, today we have the next best thing as Brian DeChesare, my friend and colleague over at Mergers & Inquisitions and Breaking into Wall Street, has just one-upped everyone by creating a 6 episode web series showing how a private equity deal comes together.

By now you should know there are only three things you need to do to break into Wall Street: network, network, and network.

Now that summer is here and my golf schedule has gone up, and my blog posting schedule down (sorry!), I recently had a flashback to when I landed my internship during business school.
It was at a fall golf event for alumni that current students were invited to. I played in the event, not because I was actively networking, but because I am not capable of turning down an opportunity to golf. I really didn’t even understand networking back then.
As it turned out, one of the alumni in my foursome had just started a new company and was looking for interns. He told me to contact him, which I did, and I subsequently landed the internship.
