Why would you do that? Don't you go to HYP to change the world?

I can understand kids who go to MIT CMU etc tech schools do that. But HYP?

Bush and Vance both went to Yale. I think the world needs less "leaders" to change the world from Yale, that's for sure.

Yes!

It’s depressing how many very bright TJ alums we know just ended up in finance or quant. Many went to Harvard, too. Strengthening the core curriculum ethics and social sciences might be necessary.

My DC went to TJ (class of 2018) and is a quant now in NYC making close to seven digits now.

If they care about money they wouldn’t be in government.

DP but it’s quite the opposite. Power in government can get you very rich. Look at the presidents, senators and congressmen. You’re an idiot if you don’t see this.

Presidents, senators and congressmen get rich and then run for office. Look at the ages of the people in those seats.

Or look at the Treasury Secretaries. Most were at Goldman, CEOs of companies, or in Bessent’s case, a hedge fund.

Or most members of our current administration who were losers on reality TV or Fox and are now in charge of ruining our country and lying about innocent people being murdering in cold blood to support to lies of a sociopathic president with a mafia complex and all of the ignorant lemmings who are so dumb that they believe every word out of his mouth and refuse to challenge him.

Anyhoo...

Some do but most are the opposite. Look at Clinton, Obama, Pelosi etc.

Most high powered positions are given to people who attained importance and wealth in industry, then asked to serve due to their expertise.

Though I agree that senators and congress people can get elected with no money or importance at all, not even particularly good degrees or knowledge, then become wealthy and important once in the position.

It actually is but not attainable by most. If you’re from UMD, then of course quant isn’t your top priority because it’s way out of your league.

It actually isn't.

It isn’t just because it’s out of your league 🤣

Nah you're out of your league.
