Finally Registered

Hello All,

I'm a 24 year-old with an MBA (Finance concentration) who has been seeking an internship or entry-level role for roughly 4 years, and taking unrelated roles to make ends meet in the mean time.

Since finishing undergrad roughly 5 years ago, I've been involved with the markets - managing personal accounts passively, as well as friends & family. I have my Series 65, and have been studying up on CFA material.

I've always lurked here on WSO and have decided to finally register and introduce myself. I've added the WSP prep course to my cart and am always seeking recommendations on how to become better informed - especially if it aids in finally landing the roles I've been seeking.

Thanks to all who have been active in the community; some of the comments have definitely been useful. I hope to become a contributing member myself in good time.

-B
