I want to know what I should be asking

>>1338377

What are your career goals and where are you on them now? Give me a little introduction to you- age, interests, career path, etc.

If you want to know about GS, the major thing I learned is how incredibly reputational they are. Not only will they evaluate all decisions based on gain, they will also strongly evaluate how it makes them look.

NYC has been, so far, all it has promised for me. High finance really was worth the push it required.

Mad Money by Jim Cramer, if you're interested in investing.

He explains the business cycle, how he researches and picks stocks, including fundamental research and how the "big" players on Wall Street pick stocks.

thanks anons

Yes. Open a Roth IRA with them and max it out 5500 each year. 3 years from now you'll be ready to add more.

>>1338352
>Each Year
I do not have that each year.
I have $10000 cash right now. I will not have any income outside of basic living expenses for the next 2 years.

Unlikely. Without a steady income, it's probable that you'll need or want to withdraw the money in the short term. Maybe some emergency will arise, or maybe some shiny toy will catch your eye. Either way, you'll raid your account, which is the worst thing you can do for your long-term performance.

Smart investing requires two things:

1. Steady income; and

2. Adequately sized emergency fund.

Once you've accomplished these prerequisites, then you'll be ready to invest like a grownup.

They are renting a boat or some shit to go deep sea fishing/sight-seeing up in Alaska or whatever. Didnt really hear my friend blather on about it as I was busy looking up prices.

I dont fucking know what to do.

Ether right now is like oil before the industrial revolution. It's not very valuable and doesn't have much application. Once dApps really take off--when something greater than the DAO comes along--the value of ether will explode. This is why I keep telling you fucks to go all in on ether and not bitcoin. Bitcoin has already reached its critical mass. It won't be worth more than $1500. But ether has the potential to be worth hundreds.

>>1338263
Where do you buy ether?
Why didn't it skyrocket when DAO was funded with 180mil?
Why do you think BTC will cap at $1500?

We need a sticky to a link where you can buy Ether instantly with any kind of currency and debit card.

So far most people don't even know about cryptocurrency, not even /b/ and reddit.

>40k properties
dude where do you live

>>1338230
It ain't the Hollywood Hills, my friend, but they're roughly 750 sq foot two bedroom homes, low crime, and pull in $750 to $800/month net.

>>1338232
What state? im legitimately curious where I can get $40k properties

Based Poloniex not bending to Russian infiltration

I hope you guys won't buy waves, because it would be sad if we all get rich same time

Here's an article about it:

But someone explain to us laymen why this is not just another pump and dump shitcoin.

Some guys were pushing InvesTokens earlier, can't seem to find that thread.

>>1338582
One of the anons in that thread reporting in. Holding for a while, though.

save it til you have enough for a down payment on a house.
or use it for a rainy day.
or go on vacation.
1000 is not alot to invest.
and unless youre completely savvy on how the stock market works and how finance works you should look to do what was listed above.

>>1338169
How else should one learn to play with stocks?

>>1338169
>wait until you have a lot of money on the line before you make all the inevitable beginner's mistakes

Don't listen to this guy, OP. As long as you have no credit card debt, $100 is enough to start investing. Play around, buy some stocks, read A LOT, and get all the dumb mistakes out of your system. The lessons you learn even losing a few hundred now will save and make you thousands down the road.

I suggest downloading Robinhood or using a low-fee broker like TradeKing. Just get out and buy some stocks in conpanies you're interested in.

You mean UK and Russia will divide up Europe as co-belligerents as they should have back in 1945, without US meddling?

Good.

>>1338162
that is never how it works with ruskies
you lend them a single screw they take your entire car and you never see it back.
churchill knew there is no peace with russians he wanted to strike them while they were weak but murricans pussied out.

>>1338142

This picture is very old - Boris Berezovsky isn't even alive. He was murdered in the UK by Russian agents a few years ago.

You really don't think believe smarter and with more money than you haven't already considered this yet?

>>1338085
I honestly don't think that... There are EU brokerages which work on classical system, phone calls and insane % fees. Time to move on with time, competition never hurt nobody. Except for Nokia, maybe.

I'd suppose most people be like "damn starting a brokerage must be impossibly hard".

hate to bump, thought this is a relatively simple question. Do I need to consult global banks to get "access" to "virtual trading floor"?

Where do I get to find the regulations of establishing trading and such? Google's not giving me anything and I doubt visiting a local bank for "advice" would be a smart idea

Tell me more about the outcome pls intrested in

That's a lot of money!

Oh and
>Brexit happens

I feel sorry for you fuckers. Seriously for a minute, why would you ever do that? It was so stupid. It took the entire market by surprise.

>>1338087

I meant £250 billion

>>1338042
Because too many people worship the rich.

More of us need to ask what God needs with a starship.

>>1338036
Make $100k/year average net for 10 years and save all of it somehow without spending any money is the fastest and easiest way.

Alternatively you could just earn $250k/yr net for 4 years, or $500k/yr net for 2 years or $1million/yr in one year.

Or you could earn $10million in one month and then spend $9million of it, or you could keep it or you could earn $100million

But you will need very high quality kneepads

Just invest more money and youll reach 1 million in 11 years instead of 22.

First year it's going to be tough to really get into that, there is a lot of basic math/C.S. skills you need to build. Data structures is really important especially for interviews in all industries. Also definatly stats, especially if your school has something like programming intensive econometrics. Get an internship (next summer) and research experience (school year) under your belt. If you can't get into an actual quant finance role freshman summer, do something engineering/C.S. related that'll look good on your resume (i.e. don't do a non-quant finance internship at a no-name firm). In the end having outstanding experiences will be what gets you the job, not classes.

my .02$: talk to your profs

you might want to read up on 4chan's rules and such. not your blog.

Forgot to mention, your primary focus should be keeping your GPA high. It sounds bad, but your skills won't mean shit to a finance firm if you don't have that near perfect GPA (unless your dad owns the place).
