Notes -
You’re thinking more the analyst or sales side of things. “I can generate these complex models but can’t sell anything,” is the division where one breaks from the other and the latter washes out. Not all forms of high finance are mathematical, even though many are. Warren Buffet uses fairly simple accounting mixed with his own taste and judgment. Jack Welch was another story. Then of course in hedge funds you have extremely mathematical, complicated stochastic processes. There are multiple ways to be successful in finance.
