Wall Street Warriors

February 19, 2008 | 1:07 am

Interesting reality show about life on Wall Street from the perspective of 7 different people working on Wall Street. Where are the quants in this show?  Damn, as I come towards the end of my PhD, the money and cool math of a quant job are seriously tempting. Wow, MOJO’s video codec is really impressive.

San Francisco magazine has a nice story on investing in index funds over more popular approaches where you pay a fee for someone to actively manage your investments . Very interesting read.
