Somebody lost a lot of money that day and took it out on ET. lol

It seems you're assuming all countries operate the same. Where in the US are there local business incentive programs that cover the costs of opening a new restuarant while not requiring the business owner putting down a dime?? Give me a list of cities. No, just name one. LOL DTB never...

I don't think anyone has been reading too carefully. DTB doesn't have sufficient funds to do anything. He's tired of making money one year and then being broke the next year. Average it all, he feels he's making McDonald's wages. So I don't know why some of you are suggesting he opens a...

It's obvious you're seeking for attention.... But either way, you're a total moron. You're a moron for making up such a stupid story. But.... You'd be a bigger fucking moron if that's what really happened to your account. :eek:

Don't set any daily goals in trading or else you're going to be stubborn an fuk up and lose all discipline because your mind becomes pre-occupied with making the daily cut. Trade in a flow. Take advantage of opportunities if it's there, but don't force trades just because you want to meet a...

Did you fail 6th grade English?

That's not the norm. That's like someone telling me that a UPenn grad hasn't found work in 12 months since graduation. Sure, a few might exist, but that's certainly not the norm. If an ex-GS banker (associates are called bankers too) is out of work for a year and a half, most likely, it's by...

Sorry, but now that is just awful advice. There aren't ex-GS/MS ibanking associates walking around. If they are, it's by choice and they're just taking a vacation before they pursue something new. The road to other jobs is very accessible for former investment bankers, especially from...

If you try trading and fail, you're not getting into any associate program, dude. It doesn't work that way. Even if you do remarkably well, you might still not be attractive to them. In fact, you'll probably have one of the weakest resumes coming out of business school because you...

This is a f--king no brainer. Goldman on your resume is pretty much your passport to every job later in life. Turning down Goldman to go to a place like Group One would be like turning down Harvard to go to city college.

Salomon, I think you should think long-term. Susqehanna is a top class trading firm with excellent training, and you should have the opportunity to work with some of the brightest minds if you end up working there, but the disadvantage is that your career would immediately be reduced to a...

It's funny that polpolik and only a few others understood the framework of the original poster's question, which was asking which degree would offer the best salary and/or overall job opportunities in the market. The OP doesn't even seem to care about which route will make him the best...

Check his post history. He's entered a flame war in just about every thread he's participated in. Even on Sunday, that troll does not rest...

Well, I can respond and tell you how silly you are, but I can see where this is going. This thread's about answering the O.P.'s question of where to choose his options in education; the topic's definitely not about validating your own sense of worth when you don't even have a G.E.D. Of...

Join Citigroup. If you ever choose to change careers, even if it's into another financial sector, most recruiters (or graduate school programs) would recognize Citigroup, but most probably wouldn't immediately recognize Susquehanna (even though they are big inside the industry). Susquehanna's...

A math/physics/c.s. PhD would have more value than an MBA (unless top Ivy) if your desire is to specifically enter the most complex levels of structured derivatives type trading. If you don't believe me, look up the job section in the finance career boards and enter "derivatives." (Not...

Whoah. Hate to break your oversized ego, bro, but you're just a small-time potato with a tiny retail account. I don't think you have any kind of idea what real money is. 10 contracts is probably size to you. Traders in top houses play with size that move the market. The original poster...

Maybe you need to brush up on some high school reading comprehension, man. I didn't say that one cannot have a career in trading without a PhD. I only stated that in order to get into some of the more complex and structured derivative trading products (where the real money's at), one needs a PhD...

Depends what you want to do.... If you want to trade and understand the most sophisticated and complex structured derivatives (where the real money's at), get a Ph.D and enhance your programming skills. They won't even look at your resume unless you have a highly quantitative background...

Your long-time grudge against me is funny! You created a brand new sn just to respond to this and you took that much effort? LOL. It doesn't matter because I know who you are, dumb ass. You really need to get some help and also a life, man. ET has completely consumed you. :eek:
