Is this a good plan for my future success?
Well I’m an immigrant from Russia. I moved here as a kid with my mom. Growing up ive been pretty alone. Im very independant for better or worse.. I dropped out of high school when i GPA went down from 3.4 to 2.7 even though i went to this placement and got straight A’s my GPA went down i said screw it. SO im starting community college and then transferring to a university. University of Illinois, Depaul, Miami University, and Syracuse happen to be my top choices. I have a mind for business/math. I’m not in anyway academically challenged. I can get straight A’s no problem if i just set my mind on it. The stock market is my passion. I think of myself as a George Soros type. I will transfer with a high GPA and phi tetta kappa honors society membership. When i transfer i will join business/trading clubs. I will network and land a trading position at some firm in NYC or Chicago. Then i will return and get my MFE at an ivy league school. Then I want to go on to hedge funds and eventually start my own and manage billions of dollarrs. This would be success for me. Its my dream that ive had for 5 years now. I want to be able to live and travel work for myself no answer to anyone. Financial freedom through something i love and do well …. now does that plan sound good? The ivy league part for my masters is so i can network and raise billions thats the key.. if i cant go to an ivy league ill be stuck in the millions, still that would be plenty.
I’d hate to be in investment banking or something similar. I’m more into risk/reward business. Venture capital an interest. Poker my hobby. Forex,Stocks,Futures, options trading is my main focus though.
btw im working at mcdonalds saving up money. I just turned 20 and dont even drive a car as i see it a financial blackhole with not profitable outcome. And ofcourse live with parents who are helping pay for community college but when i transfer i will be on my own…
deep inside all day everyday i feel that i will succeed… despite recent loses in poker and forex im still opptimistic. No matter what happens i will still believe. Im a very hard worker and ofcourse passionite about finance. I have a good chance right?
