[Anonymous No.1162950]

>>1162936

No, the higher levels of a corporation or firm are like a fraternity, but these people still need talented people to work as quants so their firm can make money. A decent quant can make 200k, that's not extraordinary. A good trader can make more than that. The partners of the large trading houses make much more.

OP however is probably not part of any cozy cabal and will have to work his butt off producing jew machines like that Goldman Sachs computer and I can bet you anything that the quants of today have to be highly skilled and practiced in coding, math and on top of that have the spatial intelligence to apply everything to produce RESULTS.

you will literally not get ANYWHERE near that much. You could make that much as an investment banker who has at least 2-5 years of experience, an MBA, and held a VP position and is looking for a new company.

And yet there are rappers who make more than you and your degrees.

[Anonymous No.1163019]

for the record:
http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos043.htm

"Median annual wages of mathematicians were $95,150 in May 2008. The middle 50 percent earned between $71,430 and $119,480. The lowest 10 percent had earnings of less than $53,570, while the highest 10 percent earned more than $140,500.

In March 2009, the average annual salary in the Federal Government was $107,051 for mathematicians; $107,015 for mathematical statisticians; and $101,645 for cryptanalysts."

[Anonymous No.1163024]

>>1162967
yes, it's still impressive

>>1162987
I meant the total amount of possessors of math Ph Ds. Achieving it isn't THAT impressive to warrant omnipotence. It's about how much you can achieve above it.

[Anonymous No.1163060]

>>1163024

Well the base assumption in this thread I suppose is that anyone who can score a PHD in math and be in their early twenties is a god. Now the scrap of paper would alert recruitors all across the country, especially those from Goldman Sachs and the likes as to the wherabouts of the new boy in town. Everyone will want him because despite the so called recession there is a big boom in electronic trading that's been nationwide for the last 10 years and is set to go world wide in the next 10 years.

Pure speculation on my part(no pun intended) but after stretching my parched imagination that's the best reason I can think of for a fresh math PHD to score mid six figures starting salary.

I don't want to include rappers as a comparison here. Rappers just love to barf "fuck the world" as they swing around with puke faces. Where do you "learn to rap" anyway?

Math is entirely different. It's not just a love and a passion and an art. It's an established career with academic institutions catering to you from kindergarten to PHD level.

finance may not be deterministic but that doesn't mean that it just about random guessing. there is a ton of modeling and theoretical work involved to lend any credibility to your guesses.

actuaries have made it an entire profession

[Anonymous No.1164810]

>>1164790

Actuaries. Yet another math-centric profession but not so much as being a quant. An actuary actually needs an immense amount of spacial as well as math IQ and has to integrate the two together. I wonder if actuaries, exceptional ones, make more than exceptionally gifted quants?

I'm an actuary. we often hire quants on a temp basis or if they are really good for full time work. we can do the work, but most of us find pure math to be boring after a while. doing math well doesn't make someone a good problem solver, which is why people want actuaries.

[Anonymous No.1164874]

[Anonymous No.1164922]

>>1164874

that's very dependent upon who you choose as your quant and who you choose as your actuary.

wall street is not hiring like they once did, so the demand and pay are not what they were 5-10 years ago for quants. ERM and the actuaries who practice it are in demand now since everyonr's shitting their pants not to turn into AIG or Lehman. A senior board would rather have someone who can both do the coding and explain the big picture. just last summer we brought in 10 summer actuarial interns and 3 had or were about to get math PHDs, but we made offers to the ones who could articulate and actually think, not just do what they're told
