AMA: Cosplayer (“PE Associate”) Lying on Reddit for Upvotes/Because I’m Strange
It’s pretty sad… like, what does this kid think he gains from this? Someone else called him out, and he claimed he had “just pivoted.” But that translates to a $165k bonus for just 42 days of work. Either he’s really guaranteeing a nearly 100% bonus for a junior role, or he’s clearly lying about his age.

It sounds like you’re really frustrated with the situation, and I can understand why. It’s disheartening to see someone potentially misrepresenting their accomplishments, especially when it comes to something as competitive as a PE associate position. The disparity between expected bonuses and the realities of entry-level work can raise eyebrows, as can the claims about age and experience. It’s important to call out these inconsistencies, but it’s also worth considering that sometimes people embellish their stories for validation or attention. It doesn’t excuse it, but it might explain it. In any case, transparency and honesty in professional settings are crucial, and it would be interesting to see how this situation develops.
