Actually most of the kids who ended up being the big money makers were not STEM. They are finance or business. Ended up working on Wall Street. Most STEM majors will never make as much money as the bankers and finance guys.

Harvard doesn’t have a finance major.

DP. You are still stuck in the 80s. The big money is in STEM. Gates, Bezos, Zuckerberg are in STEM. Even the wall street guys are hiring top STEM talents from MIT, CMU for their trading/investment jobs.

Gates, Bezos and Zuckerberg.

Not one of them has a job that requires technical skills. All run immensely valuable publicly traded companies that require extreme sophistication in finance, despite the fact that they studied STEM while in college. They are businessmen and finance guys.

Also no one other than Gates, Bezos and Zuckerberg are Gates, Bezos or Zuckerberg. The rarest of birds/talents (Jobs was also). Comparing mere mortals, even gifted ones, to them is a fools errand.

BTW, I have been a tech entrepreneurial CEO for 25 years. Not saying it makes me an expert (and def doesn't makes me one of the guys above) but I have experience in the sector.

Gates started his career programming. Bezos and Zuckerberg started their career as programmers. So did Larry Ellison. Steve Jobs was an electrical engineer. The STEMs guys/gals don't need to have a soft major to know sophisticated finance because they all have a better math understanding than the humanities-majors. The money is in tech today. Even the finance field is heavy in quant. Sure you need the soft majors in the whole eco systems, but they are no longer in the driver seat anymore.

You are making the opposite point of what you profess. The point you "objected" to was (yeah you can work in finance without a specific finance major)

You use the word "started", which no one denied, and which implies they moved on and that their primary impact was in the non-technical. Great! We agree 100%.

You are a DP who jumped in a thread you didn't read and arguing against points no one was making. Fail.

You said “they don’t study stem.” Yes they do. They study math and physics and then WORK in finance.

No, DP, and I said so, you need to learn to read and edit posts if you are not replying to the most recent point made.

You don't even know what points you are trying to make. That's the downside of having a humanities major and never learn any hard subject.

Please pay attention. Maybe work on comprehension. I'll shout it for you since you have failed to get it the first time:

YOU RESPONDED TO MY POST THAT SAID "DP". I DID NOT SAY THOSE THINGS YOU ARE ATTRIBUTING TO ME. "DP" MEANS "DIFFERENT POSTER". I THOUGHT YOU KNEW THAT SINCE YOU USED IT ALSO.

Got it now?
