Thot Breaker

-MD2 $300k total comp
-Title is 100% watered down at my shop, more comped to vp2 by street standards
-FI niche product trader with good/top p&l
-made career decision to move from street to satellite office where cost of living/RE is ~50%

I enjoy a good life, like all of us, but, I cannot escape the trading complex. I run fucking circles around fellow traders, I smoke my nyc competition, and I carry our desk p&l (only reason i can go satellite). Yet I feel helpless with zero exit opps.

How can I salvage my situation while feeling worthless reactive to my comp?

300k in a satellite office is pretty good no? Maybe see a therapist of why you seem inadequate
