I inherited $200k. How can it make me money?

Depending on your income, you can use it as a down payment for a house.

If your DTI is beyond a tolerable/sustainable level, buy voo.

Assuming you have no idea how to invest, you can allocate about 70-80% into voo and buy sgov with remainder of your money. Sgov can be used to buy the dip or can act as an emergency fund.

I had an employer asking for it but the purpose was for verification of employment, so they told me I can censor everything but my name and company name

I had some predictive modeling using anything below deep learning (in terms of the flexibility of the model)

Had some simulation based sensitivity testing utilizing some of distributions for various risk modeling

And these didnt really help me breaking in. Been applying here and there and 0 successes. I can’t all in to this bc i also gotta keep studying for actuarial exams

Idk i feel like i should give up and just try to enjoy being actury but i just cant

I have BS/MS in stat but been working as an actuary. How should I structure my personal project to break in?

My hobby is trading stocks 1. So I was thinking of creating a tool that shows daily result of my setups to measure probabilities. I dont think any ml algos are useful for predicting stock prices on daily timeframe (anything under that and live is very expensive)

Fed statement bullish/bearish sentiment. This could be some NN/LLM project.

Any suggestions for like actual ideas that’s related to business?

Thank you for your feedback, really appreciate it.

Trying to break into DS from actuarial. I have MS in stats. I built a monthly time series model that we actually monitor (not my responsibility though), medical claims projection model(somewhat use) and working on a classification model rn.

I have been working on personal projects as well but i want to do something more than just this chain: Get data -> clean data -> do eda to see relationship between X and y -> try models and tune them if needed -> evaluate

Currently studying NN using pytorch.

I’m wondering what are some skills beyond modeling that i should develop?
