    I know a lot of gay guys on Wall Street and they’re basically like everyone else, except maybe a little better groomed and more organized. The fact that “commodities trader” is acting and living the way he does is more symptomatic of his profession than his sexual orientation.

    The horse did good.

    Calling her father a “hedge-fund manager” is like calling the fellow who gave a homeless guy a buck a philanthropist.

    @4 lol, so true

    Why Nymag prints a gay diary is beyond me

    That was literally the gayest thing I read today.

    That was really gay and barely topical. Bad Bess. Bad, bad, Bess… but I like her…

    that dude trades his manjuice like its a commodity – SPODE, give us the nr’s – how many times can a determined and idle 28 year old blow his top in a week?

    @9- That dude is in the minors. Every great wanker has multiple issues; he’s promiscuous but not dysfunctional. My record is 8x’s in 20 hours but I had a little help; cute little corn fed blonde from Iowa, 750mg testosterone cypionate and 600mg nandrolone decanoate. Plus I was really the fuck stressed out.
    28 year old, no juice and minor to no issues, easily 14 x’s week. (Assumes you work out regularly)
    28 year old, heavy juice and issues, easily 25 x’s a week.
    When on the gas some women turn into fucking bloodhounds, they can smell the extra fermones across the room. They go ape shit when they see the amazon river pulsing across the back of your hands all the way up your forearms and biceps.
    Gasbag gets a hard-on when his doctor writes him a prescription for 25mg of test cream. What the fuck is that? My pizza bagel has more juice than that. Although Bess better be careful, if that shit rubs off on her she could end up with a clit the size of a cocktail weenie and a deep voice. Now that would be a dealbreaker.

    UBS sucks

    Isn’t “Gay Commodities Trader” a bit redundant?

    Someone please tell my dog that there’s more to life than licking your genitalia all day.

    @8 really? that was gay? a sex diary from a self-proclaimed GAY guy?

    It’s not really tugging your meat unless you’re also tugging on your windpipe.

    @18- Bess, you know #1 is me and you know how much I love it when you call me your little champ, even if you did forget an ‘r’. R you coming over to the bodega tonight? And about that work day… I think you know exactly how long it is.

    @17
    Cap Intro fees are usually set by the prime brokerage. JPM and GS tend to be the most expensive (and most useful).

    P.S. Commodities brokers are fucking gay. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

    @22
    ?
    I am ignorant, but Cap Intro is a soft service…I didn’t think direct fees could be paid. That’s why everyone frowns on Cap Intro, as it’s not an eat what you kill biz for the big racks doing it.

    “This life is too short to sit on your hands and wait for the market to come back up or get a second job . . . ”
    Yeah, life is too short to worry about stuff like paying bills! Just mooch off whomever you can (*ring* *ring* Hi mom!), and live it up–life’s too short to waste any time on being responsible and contributing to society.
    (Although I do have to say that the “funemployment” trend will have one very positive effect: the accelerated impoverishment of the parents and trust funds supporting deadbeat young adults, and hence a long-term reduction in aimless twentysomethings clogging up otherwise respectable cities like NYC and LA.)
