Ok so this isn’t usually up my alley, because I’m your typical banking/finance hater, but I clicked on it and watched the whole episode like a TV show.
SO FASCINATING. I didn’t know derivatives trading actually had to do with…derivatives.
I also LOVE the explanation of why mathematicians and physicists are involved in finance, it makes me feel less cynical towards finance as an industry.
You should watch this if you’re a STEM-y person, or a history person, or just generally if you don’t understand a lot of what’s going on in the nebulous world of finance.

Rollercoaster ride of a tv show. Never thought a show about investment banking could be so entertaining.

I've been really into watching YC videos on how to start and run a successful tech start up after learning more about them during the whole OpenAI debacle. I'm like 60% sure I don't want to start my own company any time soon but it's still really interesting to me to hear about how these people think and a lot of does really apply to any corporate/tech job in general.
(I do feel conflicted though because I'm sure most of these people are cash grab capitalists trying to get rich quick and are insufferable to talk to IRL tho, but sometimes they do say interesting stuff I haven't thought of before and agree with)

I know, boring, but its a special type of freedom to understand what’s happening with ur spending/saving/investing/etc. they (rich ppl) make it dumbhard to understand, but it is possible!! I especially recommend letting a friend that does understand it all give u an hour long lecture where u take notes! just make sure to buy them lunch :-)

If you’re within an hour walk from home, you should just walk home.
I understand taking public transit or an Uber there to be on time, but you’re not rushing to get home. Thus, walk.
