Damn I have a lot of free time.

This just out, ranking of top 200 jobs. Mathematician comes out top, and they earn decently.

Am going into a conjoint degree when I get back for sure. Banking is good, but I can't be a banker for life. I like sleeping too much. I think I can take two years. And make a good job of it. Then sleep for a month, hopefully not slip into a coma or die, and then move into something else.

Actually, I think this is the reason why I'm so eager to throw away my future private life for a rewarding career. It's the area where my parents have traded away, for a good private life. Was it worth it? I would have no idea. Of course, I could never bring myself to live like that. Now.

I probably can't come back to Asia right now. Pay too low. Too much competition. Too corrupt. Too little chance of advancement. I need to be senior enough to be paid decently and afford a good standard of living if I were to come back here. Root finding is over.

What I need to do, is to find some good internship experience, and conditions permitting, work for 2 years or so, then go back and get a Masters (not MBA, too BS), and perhaps PhD at some prestigious institution of learning, then hopefully that will allow me to climb further. Or into HF. Plus, Chinese people look up to those, so management positions will probably open up too.

Swashbuckling entrepreneurship is not for this life. I'm too rich (ironically). I have too much to lose. I can't risk my family like that. :-( Again, fate and circumstance.
