How Should I Utilize $200 to get from a CB to a Credit Fund?
IGNORE THE MONEY. I know this is chump change for most, but it isn't for the powers that be. Free money for education is awesome either way.
How or where should this money be spent get one step closer to my goals? I like to set the bar high, otherwise I won't do anything.
$200? That’s like 10 drinks at a lower-middle tier nyc bar
The $200 is free money but I can put in more of my own.
You take that $200, look up the nearest credit fund to your office, ask to see HR, and slip it to her with a knowing wink
The vibes tell me this might be a stupid question. Am I so hopelessly lost that I won't be able to make it.. that just makes me want it more.
What the Fuck should I do?
Can you imagine if they gave you $400? You could work for two credit funds.
Or one at $200 and two at $100
Take some credit fund manager's daughter out on a $200 date
This is the right answer
Take modeling courses (I can't remember the name, but there is a website that ex-Goldman bankers made that have free model templates), Look into UCLA's Credit Pitch Competition (you likely can't compete but you can try to email them). Look into Direct Lenders (NXT and Antares for example)
Thank for the Fisk Credit Pitch Comp info. While watching I jotted down names of the attendants and presenters so I can do some research into their backgrounds. Watching the presentations and listening to the questions asked gave a different perspective on what credit analysis is about. I'll try to throw my hat in the ring when I go for an MBA.
Aside: I really expected the presentation skills to be a lot better. Even the presenters without the language barrier seemed to be agitated and choppy.
Look at the Columbia Pershing Square Competition. Same thing.
Start up a fund with that capital.
Seriously though, what happened OP?
Nothing happened...My current place doesn't have much upward mobility due to lack of people leaving and to the small size. I feel like I am not getting paid enough for the opportunity cost of building necessary skills for more advanced positions. I am not learning enough either and I am very worried that I picked up some bad habits and am not very marketable.
My employer will provide me with up to $200 for education, so I want to know where to spend it to enhance my future prospects. I feel I can stretch that online. I am far from having the expertise to start up a fund and maybe even working at one, but that's the whole point of my academic endeavor... Since posting, I've ran across some mooc sites that give certificates and am thinking of pitching that to them.
