How do I discover my passion and choose the right career path?
You don't, you either already know, you do something else to get money or get by then you find out when it's too late, or you spend forever trying to find out

I'm wanting to break into Consultancy/IB Analyst/Journalism/something related to finance job. I have proven that I have amazing analysis skill (former employers have said so, it's not me being arrogant) but I don't have the grades, as I tend to be a tad unorthodox and tend to argue with economics teachers, as I often disagree with premises in models. To add difficulties, I want to remain in Europe, despite not having an EU passport.
I'm thinking about cold calling to try to get a job. I'm not particularly fussed about pay, just want someone to sponsor my visa, so I get a stable foothold in Europe. What are your thoughts?
>>1236623
>I often disagree with the premises of models
Well you're going to have a hard time in finance m8
>>1236623
you sound like a real asshole Op. if you analysis skills are so good, then your grades would be better. journalism combined with IB? what you want to be a talking head for MSNBC or something? what the actual fuck that makes no sense. enjoy your no-career shithead
>>1236623
>I often disagree with the premises of models
Yeah, you don't want to be a consultant or analyst. Especially not an IB analyst, where you'll just be a foot soldier.
Journalism might be your best bet, considering your anti-establishment stance. Could be a good read, and you don't need grades to write.
Hello friends. I won't bore you with long paragraphs, the long story short is I live in a 2nd world country. Shit gets popular in US and EU gets popular in my country a little while later. Which gives me the advantage of enterprising a high success rate business. The freshest example I can think about is crossfit. If I had lurked more, I might have been the owner of a crossfit gym right now and making a lot of money.
So I'm humbly asking my ameribros and eurobros' opinions and advices on somehow new, fresh fields of work. Can you give me some?
>>1236622

What would you consider financially stable enough to get married?
>getting married
>>1236601
You don't understand. Marriage causes financial instability.
>>1236601
/biz/ is already redpilled as fuck towards marriage, you aren't gonna get any useful advice here
How accurate is this?
>>1236584
Why not just look at the activity/employment rate instead of guesstimating the """real""" unemployment rate?
>>1236584
I dunno but in europe countries like italy and spain basically nobody under 35yo goes to work
>>1236591
Sounds like the dream.
I'm having a hard time figuring out why the US is still in bed with Saudi Arabia. We don't need their oil anymore and we don't agree with their, dare I say, barbaric Islamic fundamentals. Why don't we just let them fight it out with Iran and let them destroy each other?
>>1236542
Yeah, I guess I didn't state relevance here. This is referring to oil prices, I'm a laid off oil and gas worker looking to make sense of this mess.
>>1236538
>we don't need their oil anymore
20 more years op and then yes the middle east will be Africa part 2: idgaf
What would happen if I bought a physically settled butter future and it went out of the money and I had to take delivery of tens of thousands of pounds of butter in my 1 bedroom apartment, and all the butter started melting and I woke up the next morning in a sea of molten butter up to the edge of my bed?

So I just bet $500 on PredictIt.org that Trump will be the Republican Presidential Nominee, 5 minutes ago, at a 7% return rate if he is the nominee.
Is this basically free money?
My offer alone was enough to bump it up to a 6% return rate too. And now the more people buy, eventually it will go up to a 1% return rate and mean nothing. But I was just curious.
Like...he is the nominee. This is a sure bet, right?
>>1236497
Unless convention magic happens, yes.
>>1236497
>sure bet

11-18 does not sound like enough job. Most competive economics and econometrics programs in Western Europe usually take 9-10 hours a work a day for five days a week

Basically, figure your shit out, find your motivation again, and do your work.
