Roberta “RC” Saint Amour is a Bear Stearns alum, winner of the 112th Wellesley College “Hoop Rolling” Competition, honorary member of the first inaugural Ladies of Investor Relations list, and a girl with a dream. That dream? Winning the new season of Survivor: The Phillipines. Starting tomorrow, viewers can watch her go head to head with former San Francisco Giants second baseman Jeff Kent and the actress who played Blair on Facts of Life and while RC believes her time on Wall Street has prepared her well (“If I know how to play with the big boys of Wall Street, I can certainly play with the little boys in the Survivor sandbox,”she says), the $1 million prize is not necessarily in the bag. And on the off chance she doesn’t emerge victorious, she’ll be looking to one of you for gainful employment, as the management at Landmark Ventures was apparently not interested in coming along for the ride.
Newsday: You worked for Landmark Ventures before “Survivor” taped. What’s the status there?
RCSA: They replaced me while I was gone, and I came back to no job, which was a little devastating — that’s the hardest part you go through with this wonderful experience: The sacrifices you make in order to have your dream come true. It’s tough sometimes, but I try not to think about it.
Cold and, also, yet another instance in which we can say “Jimmy Cayne would’ve not only held her job open but watched every episode, with a wheelbarrow of Funyons and a childlike sense of wonderment that can only come with burning through his weekly supply of 90210 Kush in one sitting.”

The average HR girl has her beat by far…
different weight class
No.
That top doesn't match the bottom!!!
She hasn't completely gone over to the blubber dark side so I'd still hit it.
uhhhh
that hurt
Hate it when that happens.
Wall Street clearly has prepared her for at least one aspect of Survivor: Food-Eating Challenges.
SHE A STICK WITH BOOBS… ARE YOU PEOPLE CRAZY, DON’T YOU HAVE EYES! She probably gained weight to go on the show!
is a handbridge needed?
Lights off, mild starvation, no shower for 30 days.
- Jeff Kent
There are exactly zero CEOs who want to be advised by a chick from Survivor.
Jeff Kent is a redneck's redneck. Should be good. I think he went on the IR one time because he crashed his monster truck then fibbed about it.
probably not

so folks in the workforce now expect to be able to come back to a job after taking time off to compete on a reality show? no wonder this country is in trouble…
“RC” Saint Amour is what the subprime is in trouble.
“latitude”
Finally a site I agree with. I have read some real rubbish today, so its a treat to read something useful.
Was this chick a stub year analyst or what? I'm sure she was top her her class, considering how top heavy she is. Handbridges in the print shop anyone?
“immense”
“describe”
“thing”
“that”

Bear Sterns is already a red flag for Investment Banking careers and now that she voluntarily took a leave of absence in a recession when there are thousands of other unemployed Investment Banker and Bankers out there wanting her job, poses the conclusion that she isn't that smart. Boobs and her gender are probably why she got into Bear Stearn as she wasn't a trader.
i feel to be proud after read your article. Actually its a need of human and Developing is must for us successful in life.
