Salty..a lot of insurance guys who start in insurance usually end up hopping different insurers or brokers, just seeing if an investment analyst has more exit opps

Take it!! You will move into the asset management industry more than insurance. If you want to do finance you should take it.

Dumb question, what’s the “asset management industry”? Sounds broad. I’ll google also

Thanks D1!! Was worried doing Investments in insurance wouldnt be credible enough for banking

It’s people who invest money. My point here is that in these roles your function is more important than the industry of the company for your future exit ops

Currently 1 YOE tech consulting at Deloitte looking to make a hop to more strategy type roles and came across the strategy analyst development program- 1. is this only for fresh undergrads from specific schools or would I be able to apply? 2. What’s the compensation at this level? (worried I might have to take a pay cut). Also would appreciate any remarks regarding the program in general. Thanks!

I just hit my lean fire number but am hesitating to pull the trigger, so was hoping to run it by people smarter than me:

- I have a few rentals that bring in ~$1800/mo cash flow, taxes are negligible, Capex incl.
- My paper assets will bring in ~$1200/mo at 3% draw
- I get free Healthcare at the VA
- No plans on kids
- My expenses haven't topped $30k/yr ever
- I could always reenter the workforce if needed (albeit probably not in consulting)

Please point out the flaws here, what am I missing?
