How can I get into the industry while homeless and with no experience?

I am homeless but I have a great resume and spent a lot of time in school covering long-only Canadian equities. I found NamSys Inc over a year ago and the stock has soared over 140%. I know I have the skills to handily get into the industry. How can I get a job in the industry when I can't afford school therefore have no degree but have a great knack for the industry?

I have a comprehensive list of every firm public in Canada screened by NOPLAT margin, capital turnover ratio, and reinvestment rate. I have read Damodaran and McKinsey valuation manuals front to back. I am highly proficient in Excel, PowerPoint, and often use Python for heavier data sets and more meticulous statistical studies. I am quite sure as far as Canada is concerned I have the ability to pitch firms no one else bothers to cover. These include NamSys Inc, Photon Control, Viemed Healthcare, Questor Technology.

 

not sure if this is a troll post you said you can't afford school and have no degree yet managed to spend a lot of time in school covering canadian equities. you also said you have no experience but you have a great resume. something's not adding up.

 

I went to school and had to drop out because I could not afford to attend and became homeless. I covered four Canadian firms in school: Questor Technology, NamSys Inc, Viemed Healthcare, and Photon Control.

 

Sed est ducimus vitae et dolorum excepturi. Provident quia neque ullam rem laborum doloremque. Aut ducimus porro accusamus ut nam quam non.

Aliquid quod perferendis praesentium similique. Modi id quasi adipisci eligendi quia quidem. Veniam totam officia quis.
