non-Investment Banking Finance Job with HIGH PAY & GREAT WORK LIFE BALANCE?

Private banking at JP Morgan walks in the room

I'm currently getting my MBA but I'm thinking of changing it to a specialized degree.

Software engineer in finance

You can have a job where you would do a lot of work and be paid like shit.

I admire the financial independence of people, But you can live better if you work a little more. After watching this I think there are people out there, on the extreme, who plan to die early just to be able to retire early. To each their own but to me, retirement isn't just about not having to work, it's about having the freedom to do whatever you might reasonably want, such as travel, buying things, enjoying life, etc. I don't think I could retire with less than $3m in income-generating investments, maybe $2m at the very minimum. I plan to work until I'm at least 45

Private Bank…DUH!

I felt like u talked a lot but we’re looking for examples not filler information.

Hey Brian! youre videos are so helpful. I work in audit at a Big 4 with clients in the PE and Hedge Fund space as a Senior Auditor. Is recruiting for a PE/HF out of audit into a finance/ops/accounting associate role something you would consider a success? im looking to get out of audit and gain some other skills (potentially move into a strategy role if I dont like the PE/HF space) and with the current economy this is my strongest option. Any advice would be so helpful!

Great video

It actually exists, but it is not so much in the scope of the public. The reinsurance industry and also industrial insurers pay pretty well, especially in the field of underwriting and sales. Work Life Balance is much better than in investment banking.

Does the role of Treasury Analyst have something like busy season?

Is there good work life balance in Treasury?

Just work in Europe man

Bank Examiner fits this well. It's regular hours and balanced but just doesn't pay crazy. Absolute minimum starts at $60,000 a year though, which is still solid.

Quant trading I think meets the criteria. U don’t work crazy hours and u earn more than banking. However during those hours, u are doing mentally strenuous and stressful work

If I’m in college would it be wise to work as a teller?

Hedge funds don’t require Investment banking backgrounds.

Jesus working 60+ hours a week is CRAZY. I’m in finance and I work 40 hours a week and sure I don’t make an INCREDIBLE salary but I make good money especially at my age (I’m 27). I graduated with a degree in finance and I would MUCH rather make less money and work 40 hours a week and have time to live my life. Work isn’t everything.

Working 80-100h is absurd , the life you live is work and for what ? LoL trading time for a little bit more resources that will eventually pile up but aren't necessarily worth anything if you can't enjoy them.. by all means enjoy dude I hope you'll make it

Hey simp, whats your perspective on AI taking over finance?..Can I earn my fortune through a finance career in this era of AI blazing over everything??

I can attest to this, but opposite 😅

#1 Weak negotiation skills but #2, employers like me for my positive attitude. So my employer won’t hire to work me to death, it’s more so they want someone long term who will just show up. Lol not hating on myself but employers want to keep me, & not test how far they can push me.

I still go above and beyond in my work while getting paid relatively normal salary. I’m a “good deal”. Others say I should be paid more, (I say, why? So I can work more?) 😂 either way I win. It’s not always about the money.
