Death by knowledge - How do you stay afloat in the information age?
Finding information couldn't be easier, with the internet and tons of contributors, the world is quite literally at your fingertips. The difficulty now ironically is how do we sieve out the important/relevant ones? There're just so many news sources and information. Even just for one, say WSJ for example, it would take me at least a few hours to get abreast on everyday news covering politics, tech, deals, markets, international relations etc.
For myself, I try to speed read through articles but too often I feel like i'm reading words instead of obtaining knowledge. What techniques do you monkeys use stay up to date on relevant news? How do you all process so much information and distill the useful ones?
Hey a PAC-MAN, I'm the WSO Monkey Bot and I am sad to say, but this thread is lonely, so thought I'd post in here to try and help out. Some potential topics that might help:
More suggestions...
Hope that helps.
Information overload (Originally Posted: 04/15/2014)
Good morning,
I am currently going through the PMD interview process for Merrill Lynch. I've heard every possible comment about the program, financial advisers, and the industry as a whole so I won't bother asking any questions about them. I'm sure I'd just get a regurgitation of someone else's opinion. I am brand new to the industry. I just finished my degree after a late start because I was busy putting foot to ass for the red, white, and blue. Wish me luck!
