Dropped the O.U. Math course I was doing 3 years ago as I found a contract in a Investment Bank, so thought I'd just concentrate on the Math I'd learn along the way in there. This led to another role in another IB. And then another. It has been financially rewarding.Originally posted by sasguru View Post... and I'm on course for a distinction.
Been difficult juggling everything but intensely rewarding.
I'm not on course for a distinction. But I am on course for a pension. You do the Math.
