What are the best financial podcasts?

I listen to Stacking Benjamins, Motley Fool and This is Money (British podcast) but I'm looking to find some new ones and it's hard on iTunes, bonus points if British.

Stacking Benjamin's is good easy listening but I never feel like I learn much.

Motley Fool I have heard bad things about their investment funds so don't really trust their suggestions.

This Is Money is good for A British view but it's not very often or long.

What are some other good ones to listen to?

Hello, /biz/

I'm a low-class (financially) failure who lives with his parents in a small apartment.

I'd like to turn my life around so I started an LLC around Thanksgiving with the idea of doing e-commerce through FBA. First product idea was takeout boxes (which fell flat due to shipping expenses)

I haven't had an idea since then and idk what to do. I'm running out of money and running low on hope. Does /biz/ have any FBA experience? Is any Anon out there willing to share their experience and give me some advice? Thanks for reading at least.

That would be a good idea if I had enough money for that, but even if I did the taxi is going extinct becouse of Uber and Lyft. :/

So i was talking with a friend that plans to open a lab. He plans to hire a Master's graduate (with 0 experience) for $14/hr... says that $14 is an upgrade from her current job in retail for $12/hr.

Fair enough, supply/demand from an economic POV. Still though, I doubt that person will be producing only $14/hr even for their first year...

I also know of a friend that worked as an engineer for 13/hr in her first year. I can't help but feel that being a wage slave is a retarded idea if the employer is keeping the entire pie to himself.

Question is, by how much do employers generally jew their wageslaves?

how do we find out what the real value that employee is adding to the company, to find out (((employers))) profit off their slave labour.

If I'm working at a hedge fund around the age of 23, would my chance of making at least 1 million dollars before reaching 30 years of age increase? Average salary of working at hedge funds is well above $150,000 a year and I'm investing my own money in the company so I'd learn all the strings there is to learn about in investing in the stock market. I'm 20 years old right now and halfway done with college So im trying to finish my bachelors as fast as possible and get lucky with a job at an hedge fund so I can begin my path to being rich.

Holy fuck where do I even start. Ok, first of all, what are you studying? Second, how interested are you in finance and where do your strengths lie? Third, what position are you gunning for? The company you work for also has a huge impact on the amount you earn and I doubt the standard error is low enough to justify looking at the industry as a whole rather than on a company by company basis.
>>
>>1702638
Computer science and math. I want to be an analyst and I've heard over and over again that you don't have to major in finance so yeah. My university is Texas A&M which is an almost top tier school they have an almost perfect reputation so I don't think not being at an Ivy League school would hurt me right?
>>
>>1702661
You should be entirely fine, computer science and math is perfect for quantitative hedge funds and the $150k mark is certainly achievable. Definitely do a few things which get some personality and experience on your resume. Check out SIG, 2Sig, Rentech internships as well as a couple smaller quant firms, Systematic CTAs always look good. The last thing you want is for them to think is that you have no personality or experience. To answer your question, yes your chances are relatively high if things go perfectly - which they rarely do. Protip: instead of going directly to a large firm try to get a gig with a rapidly emerging hedge fund, preferable a quantitative one. You'll get promoted quickly if you get in initially and there's definitely more room for growth. You can spend years holed up at a large firm before getting moved anywhere. This is getting to be all over the place but don't get lucky with a job at a hedge fund, if you're hoping to get lucky then you probably won't, get that experience on your resume before applying for your job after grad etc. Also there's the possibility of going the long route ie get your phd in applied mathematics from a top tier school after your masters at an equally top tier (ivy) school. Going from Texas AandM to an ivy league isn't too hard. PhDs get hired and paid obscene amounts of money by companies such as SIG. Also, and I guess finally, a general look at the industry will tell you that many of these funds won't be around for much longer, I suggest staying away from fundamental companies and going for the algorithmically managed ones.

Why do so many millennials hate math so much. I just don't get it. They even choose their major solely based on how much math they have to do. Every time I tell one I'm an accounting major it's always "huuur you must be really smart.". No nigga I can use a fucking calculator.
Just blowing off some steam.

People are lazy. They're not stupid, they just refuse to put work into something.

Math isn't a natural thing that comes intuitively, so it's the first manifestation of their laziness.

Math is basically the first time in your life where it becomes very clear and evident you are lazy, or hardworking.

Put /his/, /int/ and /g/ on the no/pol/ side.

All of them meme but hate faggot poltards ruining threads


/biz/ is conceptually anti/pol/ because fascism is just socialism cranked to 10.

/biz/ probably falls under /pol/ though because everybody here also memes.

/fit/ isn't even a question, all of them jerk off to /pol/ in a weird worshipper-diety like relationship

/tg/ and /qst/ love /pol/

/lgbt/ is mainly made up of cross-posters from /pol/, the board hates themselves to look cool so they go in /pol/ column

/v/,/vg/, go /pol/ because they're the same type of shitposter

/x/ goes under neutral, posters there don't give a fuck

That's all I got for now

Hey /biz/, I'm 22 years old and currently gainfully employed with a degree in economics. I make about $55k/yr when you throw in bonuses and stuff. I've been with this company for a year and a half now(I graduated from college a year early and started working here immediately after).

Anyway, I really like the people I work with and I've made some good friends and contacts but I just don't see the room for growth here. My rich as fuck grandfather is offering to pay for me to go to grad school. He's been pestering me about it for a long time and I've just told him I would think about it. I've thought it over, making sure that this is something I would do even if I were footing the bill and I think the answer is yes.

So anyway, I have a few questions, preferably for those of you with graduate degrees or currently in a graduate program.

Realistically speaking, I'm looking at going to a university in Texas (UT if I can get accepted, have some backups if not).

In my situation, would an MBA be useful at all? What about an MS in Econ or Finance? Is there anyone with one of these degrees who can tell me what to expect as far as employment prospects? Also what's the best way to prep for the GMAT? Should I sign up for a class or is that a waste of money? I'm pretty sure I can get some letters of recommendation from some corporate level officers, is that even a thing that people do or do recommendation letters come more from academia? I haven't kept in contact with any of my professors. Is all this trouble even worth quitting my job to do a full time grad degree? Would it make more sense to do a part time grad degree at a closer but less reputable university?

i have an mba from a decent school.

mba is useful for a career change, but you really need to line everything up to make it worthwhile - have a clear, reasonable, and straightforward career plan that ties into why this particular MBA program is the match. Texas has the energy industry stuff - if you have exposure to the energy industry, then i'd probably work with that.

the biggest problem i saw is that people waste a lot of time on their internship/job search because they have unrealistic ideas about what an MBA program can do for them. your background will make you attractive to certain employers, and less attractive to others. i had a roommate who was a software engineer at microsoft - he was fighting an uphill battle with anything related to finance. he wound up at some other tech company.

recruiting is very competitive for certain industries/employers.

if you want to get a job in an actual company (like one that makes stuff, as opposed to a bank or consulting firm), you will really stand out.

letters - usually they want at least 1 letter from a current or former boss. if you are young, a professor is okay, but they'd prefer people that work with you, not teach you. you should have 3 or 4 years of work experience to actually contribute to class discussions.

part-time mba is a waste of time. your employer should be paying for it, and it is only used as a pre-req for a promotion.

Thank you for the response anon. Realistically speaking, I probably would be applying for the 2018 school year and using this year to get all my ducks in a row as far as applications, GMAT, and letters of recommendation. By then I will have three years of work experience.

My current work experience is in the auto industry, but my job role more deals with data analytics. I'm not entirely adverse to remaining in the auto industry but I'd like to set myself up to make more money in the not too distant future.
