At first my goal was to become a portfolio manager, but with my sales experience (real estate agent) I was thinking financial planning and it's a more realistic goal and no matter what I want to be managing money; being successful is a different story 
Mosesbotbol,
I used to be an intern at IBT the summer they converted to State St....great place. I loved working in the JH tower. |
The majority of my career I was in charge of managing and attaining institutional order flow for the ECN I was working with. I loved it.
