In this video, I give you guys a glimpse into what a typical Friday looks like for me, working as a hedge fund risk analyst, since Fridays are typically the day I work from home. Although it may seem like I'm constantly busy working my full time job and this channel, I believe maintaining a healthy work-life balance is key to avoiding burnout so I certainly do occasionally take the time to relax and spend time with my friends and girlfriend, which you'll see in the video.

My dream is to become an investment banker, particularly a Wall Street trader. I aspire to study for a master's degree abroad. Can you guide me on how to make this dream a reality and what I should focus on? I am from India.

    As a liquidity risk analyst at a commercial bank, this man is 100% correct. Also get a technical degree like Math, Finance, CS, Stats or Economics to break into risk. Almost every risk role is quantitative and requires coding.

      Absolutely! You will definitely need a finance degree if you want to trade at an institutional level.

    • @aaron_yao
      @aaron_yao 16 дней назад

      I did! And I wouldn't say its 100% necessary depending on your experience, but having Python would be a big competitive advantage compared to other candidates and most of the analysts I know, know at least some Python.

  • @jamaalsabree
    @jamaalsabree 23 дня назад

    I have a question regarding the finance industry. I am currently pursuing a degree in Finance as I have decided to go back to school. At present, I am in my early 30's. I have come across a notion that it becomes more challenging to enter the finance industry as one gets older. I was wondering if you have any knowledge or information regarding this matter?

    • @aaron_yao
      @aaron_yao 16 дней назад

      I'll be honest, I don't have a lot of experience with transitioning into finance later in your career but I believe age shouldn't matter as long as you have the necessary skills. For example, there was someone in my analyst class that came from several years in the military and was probably in his late 20s, early 30s. While uncommon, I'd certainly say being older alone shouldn't be a deterring factor.

      From what I've heard, Python is generally easier to learn and more widely applicable.

    • @aaron_yao
      @aaron_yao 16 дней назад

      I code in Python. In terms of skills, data manipulation is a big one. Applying quantitative techniques and other more advanced stuff is actually relatively simple with the amount of Python packages available these days.
