Introduction - New Opportunities

Hello Everyone!

So I graduated about two years ago from one of the University of California GPA was 3.0. I have some great names on my resume, but everything has been on the Sales side.

My company just got rid of the retail channel yesterday, so now I'm unemployed. Sales is a tough grind, and I think it's very rewarding, but now I want to try other things now.

My goal is to become a portfolio manager or a professional trader. I currently have no income, massive amount of school debt, and all my experience has been in sales. I am securities licenses. Any ideas?
