City trader who works 18 hours a day thinks he’s ‘a winner’

Occasional Digest - a story for you

A MAN who works in a high level city job and gets four hours sleep a night considers his life a success.

Kevin 30, not his real name or age for that matter, takes no lunch breaks and works all through weekends to maintain what he regards as a position at the top of humanity.

He said: “Sleep is for losers. As is family life and leisure pursuits of any kind.”

Doctors have predicted that Kev will be dead by the time he is 35, but Kev insisted that, ‘middle age is for losers’.

He admitted he sometimes wondered if he was not just a modern day slave who had been dumb enough to buy into a psychotic corporate work ethic.

But he added: “The prestige, the Merc and the mortgage on a maisonette in Croydon make it all worthwhile.”
