In this video, I give you guys a glimpse into what a typical Friday looks like for me, working as a hedge fund risk analyst, since Fridays are typically the day I work from home. Although it may seem like I'm constantly busy working my full time job and this channel, I believe maintaining a healthy work-life balance is key to avoiding burnout so I certainly do occasionally take the time to relax and spend time with my friends and girlfriend, which you'll see in the video.
Please do leave a like if you enjoyed the video, and leave any questions in the comments below, I'll try my best to answer them!

Nice job bro, love to see more of this kind of content.

[@DaBearsManiac2]

Don't get your hopes up about that bloomberg terminal guys, it's super expensive 😂
Great video dude! Loved that you showed just how much reading goes into the job and not just frantic charting😄
Loved showing the coding as well!! I know so many dudes who are professional traders that are proficient/familiar with at least one coding language.
I've used python for years now to make web scrapers and such!

[@jamaalsabree]

I have a question regarding the finance industry. I am currently pursuing a degree in Finance as I have decided to go back to school. At present, I am in my early 30's. I have come across a notion that it becomes more challenging to enter the finance industry as one gets older. I was wondering if you have any knowledge or information regarding this matter?

[@aaron_yao]

I'll be honest, I don't have a lot of experience with transitioning into finance later in your career but I believe age shouldn't matter as long as you have the necessary skills. For example, there was someone in my analyst class that came from several years in the military and was probably in his late 20s, early 30s. While uncommon, I'd certainly say being older alone shouldn't be a deterring factor.

[@merilinprimavera6930]

hi, what should i study after high school to work in an hedge fund in the future?

[@aaron_yao]

Depends on the kind of hedge fund! But finance and economics with a second major or minor in math, statistics, computer science would be safe.

[@Gale-m5h]

Great video! Did you learn to code at the Hedge Fund? Would you say that it is a must to learn Python if I want to land a similar buy side role? Thanks!

[@aaron_yao]

I did! And I wouldn't say its 100% necessary depending on your experience, but having Python would be a big competitive advantage compared to other candidates and most of the analysts I know, know at least some Python.

[@KhusroAnsari]

Hello, I am Khusro Ansari! I recently completed my 12th grade and am now pursuing a Chartered Accountancy course, a Bachelor's of Commerce (Honours), and an LLB degree. My dream is to become an investment banker, particularly a Wall Street trader. I aspire to study for a master's degree abroad. Can you guide me on how to make this dream a reality and what I should focus on? I am from India.

[@eloooo131]

U can't be an investment banker and a wall Street trader, maybe an investment banker on wall st, anyways apply for the GMAT OR SAT exam get a good grade apply to top schools, and boom if they like ur application you are IN !!happy American dream lol

[@Ro-Neuf]

Hey man, I recently came across your channel. I'm interested in getting into data analytics for a hedge fund. Do you do coaching calls. I'd love to set up a meeting to chat, I sent you a message on LinkedIn.
