I was very happy to be invited to the Asiamoney/GlobalCapital Asia awards dinner this week and had a good catch-up with friends. Of course, I couldn’t resist joining an after-party, so I found myself in Wanchai with a group of thirsty revellers, including a junior banker who tagged along for a big night out.
But the following morning there was some unexpected excitement for this young chap. After partying from dusk til dawn, he suddenly panicked that he was having a heart attack and checked himself into a hospital. Fortunately, after a thorough check-up, he was told he was merely experiencing a particularly bad hangover.
A classic case of working hard, but partying much, much harder.
