    Medicine or Wall Street?

    Yup, my parents tell me to follow my passion. Well, many med school graduates have marketable degrees that will help them tremendously when starting clinics in areas that need more doctors.

    Medicine or Wall Street?

    Yes, I do live in L.A. I'll graduate from college at 21, finish (if I go) medical school at 25, residency (surgical) 5 years (if I get into one), and then maybe subspecialize again for 1 more year: that makes me 31 with great earning potential. (hopefully, my parents will help me out with...

    Medicine or Wall Street?

    thanks for your comments, I think I have decided that I'll pursue a economics degree with a premed concentration and apply to medical school. If I get into med school, I'll go. If I somehow get recruited by a big banking firm, then I'll go there. Thanks and good luck to all!

    Medicine or Wall Street?

    BSAM made a comment on how I should pursue medicine because I will have a harder time getting into med school later. But I wonder, is it possible for someone older to get into the trading jobs in Wall Street later in life? Or is it close to impossible. Well, many doctors make at least 500K 1...

    the thing is that i overleveraged on the moneyforex account. first I made 9,000 on the EUR/JPY, then I lost 50,000 on my second EUR/JPY trade. Argh, I was hoping it would go up and it didn't! Which indicators do you use? Could you give me some tips?
