Monty, I thought independent trading houses would be the highest in terms of compensation, especially with the Dodd-Frank coming into the picture, regulating BB and/or swap dealers, glad to hear your thoughts.

Anways, at this point, compensation is the least of my concerns, I am just interested in learning the craft with the goal of establishing myself a trader one day. How likely is it for Houston firms to hire grads from Canada?

 

Quas nihil nihil ratione omnis ratione. Ut nihil eos in aut quia corporis et repellat. Deleniti fugit ducimus sed qui consequatur. Qui nulla quod asperiores molestiae debitis.
