Curious to see whether certain jobs in finance allow for/require more reading, or if it just depends on the person. My guess would be that HF analysts and PMs read more than traders or IB analysts, for example.

Future aspiration: like a madman. I cram everything I can in. Podcasts, very dry textbooks, white papers, documentation, research reports, any free MOOC I can get my hands on, interesting books, anything I find I voraciously read. If I did drugs at the rate I read, I’d make Jordan Belfort look like a wimp.
Also MIT has some incredible, free resources. Check out MIT Press Open for info on so many topics all for free. For the books that cost $30, scroll and find the “Open Press” tab and download that PDF or HTML for free homies.
Thankful for this.
