How rich can you become through finance?
I´m currently a college freshman with a lot of former students from Le Rosey (100k a year for HIGH SCHOOL), some of my peers actually already interned in IB´s after graduating High School. I actually do know some billionaire kid who got a maserati to his 18th birthday. Will it be possible to achieve this level of wealth through a career in finance?
Why not?
My favorite type of boy has le rosey cheeks and a beautiful kissable mouth. Scrumptious!
Finance Made You Rich, What's Next ? (Originally Posted: 02/26/2013)
Hello fellow monkeys !
Everyone is always talking about jobs and exit ops, but what about when you have reached your "f*ck you money" level ? (Definition here.)
What will you monkeys do once you've gained enough money in finance to do whatever else you want ?
Fuck you money? Nah, more like "Fuck you, money!" Mo money mo problems.
jk, I want more money
Something in the music industry, too bad it doesn't pay for shit
Please tell me you're an aspiring rapper or hip-hop producer
I got some dope verses if you got beats..
Start my own porn company.
How much acting does that include ?
Probably a fully loaded fighter jet, attack helicopter, my own airfield on a private island with 360 armed perimeter, and fully autonomous robotic support staff. gotta protect my riches.
Kim Jong Un would be proud
My body's made of money. I donate to a few museums around town.

Own 1-2% of a shitty NBA/NFL/MLB franchise and act like I actually do something. If it's an NFL team I'll make sure to be really emotional and pace the sideline at every home game until ESPN notices me.
And show up every now and the with your bootylicious singer of a girlfriend. And then maybe do a TV show about the team. I see.
Go be a bespoke tailor. Specializing in purple velour leopard print suits and custom handmade pimp sticks.
The kind of people that end up making that kind of money only want to keep doing what they've been doing. Chances are they like it.
^ True
But, if I ever got my "fuck you money" I would move to a small Galician town (Camelle) and become a baker.
Can you explain why exactly "a small Galician town" and why a baker? I just think that sounds like an interesting answer.
I'll become a teacher if I get my walk away number,. So many days off a year, placing trades through my smart phone while the students are solving problems or working in groups and a secure job compared to finance. However, I won't be the cool teacher. I'll be an asshole compared to the English lit. majors trying to save the world.
Why would you want to be the asshole? You'd have enough money to be a teacher of any quality and not have to worry about the consequence, so why not be a good teacher but also fun? You can be a helpful and great teacher without being an asshole.
^ My second choice. Great vacation, decent pay. Make an actual difference (feel free to argue about this).
I would love to be a sarcastic History teacher.
Definition is retarded. No "guaranteed" investment has a 6% yield, especially these days with Big Poppa Bernanke flashing bills like he's a fucking crip. If you think you've got 6% forever, you don't have "fuck you money" you have "dumb money."
Aside from that, a good number of people that are at that level just keep going to work. You need a place to go every day, and a lot of people enjoy the thrill of the hunt. You should never do a job because you want to make your money and bounce, it never seems to work out well. There's always the next big trade sucking you back in. And eventually you wake up and you're 50 and you're doing the same shit and you've wasted your life.
I'll be a mini-Kanye West
I would devote all my time helping others. Especially the blind. I would make sure the blind and vulnerable children never lack. Seriously. Fuck you money means nothing if you don't give back. The legacy holds stronger!
It's kind of hilarious how I find so many people want to be teachers, but most would be really shitty teachers.
