New to WSO Community

I'm a 21 year old student living in Sacramento, CA, studying Finance/Economics at SAC City College, awaiting transfer to a four year university. My career goals are to eventually get an entry-level front office job in the banking/financial services industry. Proprietary trader, equities analyst, M&A banker, fund/asset manager, financial advisor/broker are all positions that appeal to me despite the long hours and negative connotations that come with these titles. These are among the most lucrative positions in the industry.
