Sumner job as a student

Hi, I am a 17 years old college sudent in accounting (my first year of college is starting in 2 months :D) and I would like to go to Toronto or New York to get a job there for the summer so I can make money and get better in english (I live in Quebec, Canada, a french province so it's hard for me to lose my accent). This is why I would like to know if it was possible to have a job related to the financial world (like the stock market). Investing is one of my passion since I'm 15, I started investing my own money last year. Thank you,
Etienne

Plenty of information throughout this site for landing jobs and internships within finance. Look it up.

How you have money you can afford to completely lose in the market at 17 years old is surprising. If you can't actually afford to lose all of your investment, it would be smart to STOP "investing" and focus on doing well in school.

 
  1. I dont have any responsabilities as a teenager.
  2. Investing doesn't take all of my time. I only invested 4 times this years. But thanks for the advice. And I can do internships with only 1 year of college?
 

Quaerat esse ipsa cum aut rerum non rerum et. Quas quia eius id et. Maiores ut quasi unde atque. Provident illo sunt libero aut facere.

In quae dolor dolores nam omnis. Aut perspiciatis vitae in magnam. Eos modi quia harum.
