I think its pretty hard to beat rio in any discussion about location for anything so I'll second that as well as san diego...nothing like the weather in SoCal
happy give me a call
Wonder how hard it is to get a trading job in Rio? That would be awesome to say the least.
I'm pretty sure the hardest part is finding someone willing to sponsor you. Just like the kids trying to work here, needing that VISA is a major stumbling block for a lot of firms
I knew a girl at CS who was working in their latam group and she said they could not find enough traders in rio
damn...i need to start callin mofos that i know in brazil it sounds like
Put in some calls for me too bro! Haha. Looks like I picked the right time to learn Portuguese.
If you know Portugese then I will not be mentioning your name as I don't know the language and it would not be in my best interest to let them know that there are more qualified WSO users out there
LOL! I just started a few days ago. eu falo um pouco de português.
i found a blog about some people who left it all behind and left to travel the world.. sounded so interesting.. i want to try to dial back my life.... cut expenses.. its so damm hard in this industry
I think I saw something similar...it was like chasing summer or something about a couple who went around the world from city to city just following the warm weather...quality read
Stories like this really put cliché lifetime goals such making big money for buying brand new Ferrari's, private jets and islands into a whole new perspective. Good find.
a guy that worked with me made 2 million and quit day after he was paid.. i had just started so didnt know him well but last i heard his first year away he lived off 14k and this past year 9k... he was somewhere in se asia
I have heard of a couple of guys who quit in Hunter/Arnold days. One guy straight up quit Arnold's shop after he paid him I think it was 20mm, he was like thanks John I am done!
San Deigo would be real nice, they get at 4-5, but leave at 2 and on the beach. Rio would be crazy, but somehow I can see the only places trading Oil Products/Byproducts and usually they are cahoots bed with not so friendly people.
Barca...never heard of any trading shops there. That would awesome though.
I wonder how working geneva or sydney is too.
I dont know any shop at any of those places.. just location alone..
any chance you know the name of trader? I know a few people there..
Monty, check out the movie "A Map for Saturday".
Dubai would be a good location.
good movie?
It's about a guy who literally just dropped everything to travel around the world.

Geneva's OK. It gets quite boring due to its size and the nightlife isn't great. The lifestyle is good and often quite relaxed, which helps if you're a Trader. A lot of the guys I know who work in the industry like it here but always say they want to lateral to either Houston or Singapore.
