| Oooooh I can't sleep. I think my internal clock is broken. =(
You know, I really believe that I lead a charmed life. It took me 23 years to figure that out. I know I have more than most people do and I appreciate it every single day. Not only that though. Everything that I do, everything that happens in my life, turns out my way. Maybe not exactly how I planned, but in the end it turns out better than I planned. Every single bad thing that has ever happened to me, now I know happened for a reason. And I know I bitch a lot about my parents, but I do think they raised me well and know that they do what they do because they love me. Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, then it's not the end. =)
I got a new job. I love my parents and all, but really I cannot spend the whole day with them at work and then go home and see them some more. We will kill each other. For sure. Besides, I really did feel like I should venture out and do my own thing for awhile. Maybe I'll come back to my parents' business in a couple of years. I'm working as a financial advisor now in an office downtown. Next monday I'm taking my Series 6 exam, in two weeks I'll be taking my Series 63, and hopefully in 6 months I'll be taking my Series 7 to do stocks. The more I learn about the securities industry, the more interesting it gets. And I really did need something to stimulate my brain. I swear, college just turned my brain to mush. All I learned was how to stay up for 3 days straight without sleeping, how to cram hardcore, how to bullshit my way through essays, and how to look like a bum in class. Putting together a client's portfolio is like a puzzle to me. Figuring out his income, tax bracket, primary financial objective, willingness to risk for growth, what will make/save him the most money, etc. and then rearranging his money in various funds, IRAs, stocks, bonds, etc. I can also set up trusts, retirement plans, variable annuities, life insurance, etc. So if you have any extra cash laying around and you need some investment ideas, I can help you out. I'll make you some money. =)
One last thing. TiVo is tha SHIET. =D |
