<0> heh
<0> jb's close to 3 figures
<1> Haha
<2> Noidea, you use your EE skills, you learn a bit of finance, you make an fpga for them that does monte carlo sims, and booya > 1m$
<3> I'm thinking about getting an masters in finance.
<2> good
<2> dont do economy whatever you do
<3> economics?
<3> why is that?
<2> cause its rubbish
<0> i'm getting my masters in bf2
<0> as i can obviously already school JBlitzen
<3> I dont' play video games anymore.
<2> Noidea, economics doesnt give you money
<3> ahhh, finance better
<4> finance = money
<4> so u be rich
<0> and money = cash
<2> finance, more importantly mathematical finance aka financial engineering is what you want
<3> well, I think finance would be a good move if I want to move up the management chain.
<0> which is just as cash!
<2> im doing a phd in financial engineering
<0> +good as
<4> and cash =
<1> Sheep, for khan
<0> ewe = pwn
<4> cash = more ho's
<3> here, if this makes it more clear for you JB
<3> My W2, with my bonuses and salary put me well over 6fig
<3> well, well into that range
<0> mine did too
<3> over 6 makes it sound like I'm at 7
<1> Wtf does that mean
<2> Noidea, at the bank I knew software engineers that did a master in finance or a phd and they made 7 figs
<3> nice Quantum``
<1> Okay, so then how do you not make 6 figures
<2> their basic salary was 6 figs but they got a huge bonus
<1> Well, that's still income
<3> it's not salary
<3> my salary isn't over 100k yet
<3> but, like I said, it's close :)
<0> my wife will shortly make 6 figures base, plus 1x in commision
<0> w00t
<0> comission?
<0> sigh
<3> 1x?
<0> i'm lost without a spell check
<0> she'll make 1x base
<3> you mean 2x?
<3> because 1x base is base
<0> when added, sure
<3> ahhh, plus 1x
<3> ok, plus
<3> I get it now.
<0> NOW WHO FAILS MATH?!
<0> heh
<3> You've gotta give me something to integrate for me to get it right.
<0> silly CpE nerd
<0> it's still light out at 6:15
<0> soon it'll be DLS
<0> i can't wait
<3> that's crazy peterhu
<3> she's in sales?
<3> I should be in sales
<0> yeah
<3> except, I don't like people.
<0> sales people make insane amounts of money
<0> our friend clears $400K
<3> geeze
<3> I need to get back into school.
<0> well, mostly her friend from work
<0> +can make
<0> the downside is constant travel, constant contact, and ulcers
<3> and, she was originally a teacher?
<3> how did she make that career switch?
<0> french major baby!
<0> it takes people skills
<3> I've got crazy people skills
<0> she got into the company as an administrative ***istant
<3> I didn't kill a single person last week.
<0> they recognized she was smart and dedicated
<0> so they ***igned her to sales
<3> that's crazy
<3> I'm ***uming the raise she got in the move was ridiculous
<0> well, her base was more than she was making as a teacher or ***istant, that's for sure
<0> but nothing outrageous
<0> but with her commission, it's quite a raise

<0> nice pinto
<1> Why thank you
<0> is your middle name crap?
<1> I really need to take a good picture of that truck
<1> No, why do you ask
<0> just wondering where the c comes from
<0> or is that your first name, J.C.?
<1> Just my middle initial
<0> for jesus christ, i ***ume
<1> Charles, after my grandfather
<0> i too suffer from a C middle name
<2> C++ programmer: http://jobs.financeasia.efinancialcareers.com/job-4000000000151533.htm
<1> You suffer from a G middle name

<1> Quants and ticks, eh
<2> true...
<3> yup, time to get back in school.
<1> You can be a quant, quantum
<2> you figured me out...
<0> my sister paid 3x's my house for a place in NYC, and i've got twice the space, and a third of an acre
<0> and her's isn't a house, obviously
<0> as there are very few houses in manhatten
<2> there was one job that said 1.7m basic
<0> i'm sure my sister and her husband pull down 500K a year in NYC
<0> at least
<0> they'd have to to pay that mortgage heh
<0> if i had people skills and didn't want to create software for a living, i might try sales
<0> but i fear i'd be too honest
<0> "you know, you really don't need this crap!"
<0> ultimately, i'm just thankful i'm not working in a factory somewhere for far less
<3> I don't think I'll be happy as an engineer forever
<3> I want to be in control of something.
<3> and have an office
<0> work for microsoft
<0> engineers have offices
<0> requires only your importal soul
<0> it sounded like a good deal, at the time
<0> hmm
<0> i think my direcctor is purposely avoiding me
<3> you didn't like MS, huh?
<0> as he knows i'm going to serve notice
<0> actually i loved it
<0> i just joke, like most msfters, about being a drone
<3> oh wow, suddenly very light headed.
<2> become an algorithmic C++ trader in an investment bank
<2> no people skills
<2> needed
<2> just math and C++
<0> now you're just making up jobs
<2> no
<2> :)
<3> I've gotta figure out this GRE thing
<0> who trades algorithms? pffft
<3> I don't even know how you take the test :)
<0> you pee in a cup
<3> I thought there was a section related to your major
<2> http://www.londonnet.co.uk/jobs/details/4353.html
<5> Noidea you want to take the general GRE? or a specific one?
<3> I don't know
<3> I need to research this.
