seriously couldn't they get a real banker to consult. i work in the finance industry and people don't talk like that, they don't quote fightclub or the fall of babylon prophecies....this dialogue is just full of cliches, very unrealistic

Then again, it depends on WHERE you work in the finance industry. Because after all, investment banks had a very different culture from commercial banks.
