💊❄️💸 ✨why nm denver felt like…a fucking fraternity✨ 💀⚖️🥂

(in my experience!)

baby

let’s talk about the ✨culture✨.

🧢🤙🍻

not the brochure.
not the linkedin headshots.
not the “financial planning with heart” bullshit.

the actual vibe.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑🍻🥳💊❄️💸🔥🔥

because i didn’t
walk into a financial institution.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑🤝🗣️

nope.

feels like—

i walked into a fucking fraternity with licenses.

🔥🏛️🍻

you know
how i know?

babe!

real firms separate:

⚡️ professional boundaries
⚡️ social boundaries
⚡️ financial boundaries
⚡️ marital boundaries

fraternities fucking blur them.

and
what did i see?
(
in my experience)

😧 bars.
😧 private residences at almost midnight.
😧 venmo energy.
😧 group chats.
😧 ego inflating.
😧 a lack of record keeping.
😧 “mentorship” that looked suspiciously like fucking social climbing.

married combat vet with a pregnant wife?

🤯💥

fucking party mascot

unstable new recruit with no production and no license progress?

🤯💥

keep him in the office all week through her third trimester

why?

because fraternities
don’t care about performance.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑🍻🏘️

nah.

🗣️ they care about loyalty and optics.

real firms care about compliance.

🗣️ fraternities care about fucking vibes.

real firms ask:

“is this appropriate?” 💫

🗣️ fraternities ask:

“is this fucking fun?”

lol

so a culture that:

💋 keeps a zero-production recruit visible for optics
💋 mandates full-week presence with no income
💋 allows blurred personal/professional lines
💋 encourages off-channel communication
💋 enables dependency instead of stability
💋 centers ego validation over guardrails
💋 treats a pregnant spouse as the funder AND background noise

is not risk-managed.

⚖️🔥🥲💀

it’s looking like…
a fucking socially managed frat house.

and socially managed systems
seem to behave like…

fucking fraternities.

💊❄️💸🏠🥂🎶

lol but.

this wasn’t 22-year-olds in a basement.
no ma’am!

this was grown goddamn adults.

because
remember
when
shit hit the fucking fan,
the energy wasn’t:

👊💥🤕🤰🧾

“this is serious.”

nope.

it was:

“protect the brand.”
“protect the team.”
“protect the boys.”

unity

not fucking accountability.

🤡🤡🤡

babe!

i’m not saying
everyone there is evil.

🧢🤙🍻

absolutely not.

but yo
when it feels like you
run a financial institution
like a fucking frat house?

❌❌❌

don’t act surprised
when that volatility turns into
goddamn liability.
