Blah, blah, blah. Sounds cool, but all I need to know is: Do you get to blow $hit up with things like TOW missiles and such?

Thank you for serving our country.

I have degrees in Finance and Accounting... in Finance they teach you how to lose all the shareholders' money. In accounting they teach you how to cover it up.

With that said, I am the director of trading operations and investment analysis/research at a financial services firm. Contrary to popular belief, I was not responsible for the flash crash.

Accounting was terrible. I wasn't too bad at it but just HATED the material and class. FineAnts was alright, I enjoyed it more than acct.
IT was my forte

I started out the other way -- I was really interested in Accounting and my faculty advisor got me to look at doing the double w/ FineAnts and I did it. Turns out I liked that more and got really involved with all the programs at school and here I am. For some reason employers like the Accounting degree ontop of Finance... probably because they think they will save money because instead of hiring a separate person to cover up for your fraud, you can do it yourself.

Though I swear when I finally buy an expensive car the plates are going to read "CR CASH"
