...contemplating ways to undercut your friends’ (read: competitors) extracurricular ambitions, these people will have a litany of experiences that are both enriching and rewarding. But wait 10 years and see who’s laughing, when you’ve got your own desk on the 50th floor and they’re off “making a difference,” whatever that means...
