Is it normal to finish a master's degree in finance and feel like I don't know how to do anything of value?

I forgot about most intricacies of the only few things that were interesting like time-series analysis and the things I do remember are all replicated by an excel sheet. I passed the first level of the CFA but have absolutely no desire to keep going without knowing that my job will require the full title first. I see these random finance job applications and think "I can't do that".

What the fuck was I trained for these past couple of years?

Yes it's normal. The difference between you and the people working there are that they believe their skills are hard, and that they know something substantive.

but they can't have learned that in college. It's like I have merely glanced at everything finance has to offer in every course, allowing me to go "yes I've heard about that once" instead of getting actual skills that let me pursue projects from the ground up to the end.

that's what connections and internships are for

You wasted your time on a useless degree while you would've probably achieved more by doing some low or unpaid internships

You weren't trained son you were "educated"
check out tastytrade if you're in securities markets, and REIClub.com s videos if property is more your thing.

and if you really want to make sure. Ask the people with the titles you want where you can learn what you need to do what they do.

I don't know what I want. The only jobs that SEEM cool are debt collecting/credit analyser and wholesale but even these jobs look soul-sucking. There's just so many options that are wildly different, as opposed to an engineer who kind of knows what he's getting into when he goes for X kind of engineering.

but really I didn't do anything fantastic. Yes I studied and passed tests but even after all I did I don't have the confidence to manage my own money on the markets.
