like i said, its not something i look foward to. i want to do something related to english literature or cinema. my clleagues tell me i know more about books and movies than equity research. i'm 29 - i dont think thats too old.
anyone think it would be a good idea to resign my job and go back to college? or i could do a distance education course in english literature (which is my major interest). yes, i'm THAT bored with my job and life. i'm asking you guys because you guys know me better than anyone else
From what I know of you, I think film school and movie critic are your life calling. You'll have to network like hell to get a good critic job, but once you do I think you'll love it.
