Question for some math gurus

[sjfan]

How is a buy side asset manager not finance? If the guys buying and selling bonds, interest rate swaps, and derivatives are not in finance, please, do tell me who is.

You know what? let's do it. PM me your cell or whatever; I'll buy you a coffee, and, provided you are not a complete assh*le in person (which I suspect you aren't), I'll give you a tour of our trading floor. If I don't follow through, feel free to tell all of ET what a fake I am (or whatever).

How's that for putting my money where my mouth is.

Oh - if you mean my undergrad degree in comp sci, I do have a graduate degree from that business school attached to penn (not state).

Okay, I feel like I'm actually being kind of a douche with this; I'm serious about my offer above. Why not - it'll be my "help a misguided undergrad" event of the year.

Because I don't feel like announcing who I am or who I work for over a public forum?

I guess with your family owning a brokerage firm, you are all set up then. Good luck to ya - but I guess you really don't need it.
