I got interested in finance around that time and wanted to work at a hedge fund when I grew up. So I started extensively researching hedge fund strategies and tried to find one that perfectly fits me and that I can do at a fund when I am older. So I started doing merger arb and distressed. Obviously I did not do distressed properly since I couldn't buy the debt, so instead I would buy distressed stocks thinking it would be the same. Do you have any advice for me in context to which offer I should take?

You've matured quickly in a month: https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forums/hf-in-depth-equity-strategy

"Hi guys,
I am a 14 year old student who eventually wants to break into the HF industry and for the past few years I have been learning a lot about the investing world. I want to start investing soon but I do not know what strategy I should use. "

 

Alright I will come clean. I just wanted to know which one I should start doing and what has a better future outlook and I realized that people here don't reply if you just straight up ask for help, so I said I got an offer for both thinking that then people will reply since usually when someone here says they got an offer and ask if something else is better, people reply.
