Hi everyone,

I was hoping I could get some opinions and suggestions as to which route I should go and what my next steps should be after graduation. Just to give you a brief background of my situation. I am scheduled to graduate in May with a Bachelors degree in Finance, I also took all the necessary CFP classes in college so that down the road I could go for my CFP exam. For the past 2 years I have been working as an independent FA assistant doing things from general Admin tasks to handling all aspects of client services. I realize that I am still far too young to become a FA and realize how hard it is to make it in the field, however, I do still wanna pursue this career and do believe that I have what it takes to make it... I was hoping to get some advice on what I should do after I graduate...Should I continue working where I am as an assistant (I don't think they would be able to give me more than 30 hours a week) or should I be looking some where else? Any advice would be much appreciated!!!

Try to marry a rich girl and then just cheat if you need to.

So as soon as i graduate the smartest thing for me to do would be to leave where I am as an assistant and try to find job at whatever firm will take me??? I was thinking I should stick it out where I am until I get a little older this way firms would take me more seriously…Is that a bad idea?

It's not so much about having a firm take you seriously.  It's more about putting yourself in a position in which you can succeed.  In order to that, you are going to need to get sales experience.

As an assistant, you won't get this experience and you may be looked upon as a secretary.  I'm a broken record on this, but going with an insurance broker/dealer might be the way to go.

I met one in a bar a couple weeks ago when I was having a few cocktails with some buddies.

They are aggressive these days........she said she didn't CARE that I was married and she's dated "older men" before........

Do you guys think you should work extra hard to get rich and forgo spending time at bars etc. so that you can have lots of sex with college girls when you get old or should you focus on doing that in your twenties and then just get none when you're older and have limited money?  Or should you just find a balance and try to have sex with college girls all your life? Or should you just find a good girl and marry her and cheat?  Or should you find a good girl, marry her and not cheat? 

I mean do you older guys who make say 500k a year actually entice girls to sleep with you even though you're probably ugly to most college girls?

We should be having as much sex with as many college girls as we can, until we die. Money has a great way of creating pretty out of ugly.
