I'm a big fan of Equity Private, a blog about the bottom rung of the investment banking ladder... and yesterday, Yong the Analyst (my replacement at GM), suggested that perhaps the writer is female.
It reminds me of the time that I was looking at an unbelievably slick financial model one time--one that had some very powerful, but very simple..even elegant... VB code built into it. We were so impressed, that we looked up the author.
P. Chung
Well, from that moment forward, anytime we were stuck on something in Excel, we thought to ourselves... "P. Chung... he'd be able to figure this one out." "P.Chung" became a mythical figure between us. Master of the Spreadsheet. A man for all formulas.
Only later we found out that P. Chung was really Patricia Chung, Queen of the Spreadsheet.
Serves us cavemen right for assuming it was a guy.
