I’m considering a career change from accounting-leaning (background is accounting) to finance - in particular, Quantitative Finance.
Reason? I would love to go head first into the teeth of such a challenge. It is intellectually rigorous and the jobs tend to be quite rewarding. If I were successful and accomplished my goal at landing at an elite firm like Citadel, then I could potentially start my own fund.
That’s pie in the sky stuff for now.
As the question states, does anyone have a background in those listed subjects? I’m considering going back to school to obtain BS in Physics and hopefully a PhD (but I strongly want to go to Princeton for that - which is so steep it’s a stupid goal).
