[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- thanks for the ideas. He would hate being a math major. He is really most motivated when digging into areas of specific interest and precalc is fine but he’s not loving it. We could be full pay but would prefer not to be.  I don’t see him enjoying Wall Street. He would likely be happier in a quirkier environment. [/quote]

So the not liking math is going to be a problem. Obviously he'll need to get way beyond pre-cal to get into any school that might be a pipeline to a quant. And you don't think he'll like Wall Street. Which, good for him.

Maybe pursue other interests.

Crypto-bros are a thing among young men. It might just be a stage. A lot of boys feel like they're smarter than everyone else and have it all figured out. Let him trade with something you and he are willing to lose. And find other interests to pursue. There is no avenue in finance if he doesn't do well in math or goes to the right schools or dislikes the culture. None. It's just day trading. So keep it at that and find something else to do.
