do you guys finally realize that you should have went the well worn path and get a traditional career in finance? While you imbeciles are spending your days posting about the 2000$ you've put into your imaginary toy money and watch anime porn all day in mommys basement, we, the adults, are out here making REAL money with our REAL jobs and progress in our careers as financial analysts, HF managers or PE consultants. But maybe it's not too late, kid. If you work hard you might land yourself a nice gig as a summer intern at Goldman or JP Morgan.
Anywho, I hope you'll get yourself together and dodge this bullet called "crypto".
Honestly want to work as a financial analyst. HS senior right now, really bad at math, is it worth a shot or should I take the normie CS route?

If you're smart, got good grades and willing to sacrify some things, yes it's possible. What you major in doesn't really matter as long as your grades and school are both good. It is hard and a bit of a gamble though. Like 6000 people apply for the few hundred intern places you'll need to succeed. Only the smartest or most dominant and aggressive ones make it.

Just do extra curriculars my man

I’m 50/50 Netflix and Ethereum since 2016 Best of both worlds, independently financially independent. Btw 8 inches and it’s thick.

>I diversified my money between two ponzi-based markets
Yeah, Crypto is a ponzi scheme and most of this board will fail miserably, but honestly a "career" is for losers. Start your own business or you're not a real man.

Taught everything to myself, worked hard for it, did it all from derivatives to currencies to stocks to crypto. Run a fund with a 30-50% yoy return since 2015 now (no derivatives, around 80 stocks and a few ETFs). How can I make GS know I'm their guy? I don't want to wear a suit and pretend stuff, I actually know stuff.

>Only the smartest or most dominant and aggressive ones make it 70% of the time the people who get these internships are the most well-connected
You don't need to be smart or good at math to be a "financial analyst." Dealing with people is always a shit job and there are better ways to make money if you're bringing more than a pulse to the table

I noticed a pattern then built a bot to exploit it.
