Hi WSO

Hello WSO - been reading for a long time, finally decided to register. So much good info here, and a good community that I hope I'll have something to contribute to.

About me - graduated from a non-target last May, joined a wirehouse as a stockbroker (sorry - "financial advisor") after getting no other offers. Eventual goal is to become a portfolio manager, so a long way to go just to get on the right track there.

Anyway, cheers & look forward to being a longtime member.
