Are you a happy-go-lucky person looking to make a quick buck?  Do you enjoy freedom and being an individual?  Do you hate authority and are intolerant of conformity?  Do you want to listen to music in the office, surf the web, chat with friends and have the semblance of a normal life?  Are you these things and want to stay the same for the rest of your life?

If you answered yes for the final question, do yourself a massive favor and never work for a finance company.  Only work for a finance company if the only thing that matters to you is money.

I'm not joking.

You have to be in complete love with money that you'll do anything to get ahead.  You don't have to care about personal relationships, your family, your health, your coworkers, your skills, your dignity, or anything.  All you have to care about is being materialistic.

You can be fake and shallow and it's well accepted.  You can be selfish, self serving, and hurt other people.  But as long as you earn money and show results, you can brag about it.

You can have pride and commit all the deadly sins and be considered a hero, an idol, a God.  As long as you earn the highest buck, you can do this at any cost possible, except going below the amount you're receiving back.

But remember: when you change and you try to go back to your friends, unless your friends are also in the same industry, or unless your friends are digits in your bank account, forget who you were.  You no longer are someone we want to associate with since the person that we cared about has transmorgrified into a numerical value.
