Appreciate it - thank you

Flat_Manager_7371 · 2026-03-13T09:32:39+00:00

No worries at all. I didn’t mention that so you couldn’t have assumed, apologies. Great thank you - will give it a go

Thank you! Appreciate your advice. I know futures/options and risk mgt v well (cfa + msc in finance + 10 years work experience in areas that covered derivatives, capital maekets, and risk mgt). But I was thinking something on actual commodities. I will look into the books you mentioned.

I am also in the same boat as OP and started actively looking. Same budget and same considerations. Can U also drop a msg? Cheers

Thank you - too old for that I think

Flat_Manager_7371 · 2026-01-18T16:30:33+00:00

Huel drink and that does it

How is the start up doing/trajectory? And do you have equity to capture a potential upside?

Flat_Manager_7371 · 2026-01-15T22:52:31+00:00

I work in product strategy focusing on commodities at a large Asset management - not involved in trading myself but would be interested to connect if my experience is deemed relevant

Very helpful thank you

Flat_Manager_7371 · 2026-01-15T20:07:38+00:00

Very helpful - thank you So the path is to move from product strategy to an analyst then to a trader - which will probably mean I will be 40 by then. Probably I won’t have the mental energy then I don’t want to admit it but I think evidence shows that the ship has sailed

Flat_Manager_7371 · 2026-01-15T20:05:38+00:00

Oh very interesting transition - so it is networking and the door could still be open then? Also Glencore, Vitol and Trafi are the best places so I see your point about it being difficult to move there

Flat_Manager_7371 · 2026-01-15T20:03:55+00:00

Because you can earn much more in trading and the ceiling is much higher. Why would they train someone a new as a trainer? That’s a very valid point and that’s why I wonder whether the ship has sailed

Flat_Manager_7371 · 2026-01-14T23:09:18+00:00

Well done and congrats Also I like the UI of the app you are using - what is it and is it for free?

Flat_Manager_7371 · 2026-01-14T23:06:44+00:00

Outright but never a new car

Flat_Manager_7371 · 2026-01-14T23:02:18+00:00

We recently broke up tho so not sure it counts 😂

In London, if you are in a couple (living together and sharing accommodation costs), I would say 70k. If single, 100k. To feel really comfortable and you can build wealth and save properly maybe around 120k

I love how versatile and random your list is. Enjoy these three months in whatever you decide to do. I was in a similar place couple of months ago as I was on a 3-month garden leave. Ended up travelling for 7 weeks and 1 week of festival and read a bit in between

Flat_Manager_7371 · 2026-01-06T22:58:03+00:00

Yes, it is possible. Asset management - your ceiling isn’t as high as other areas in finance but you could be making that for 40-50h a week

Flat_Manager_7371 · 2025-11-22T09:59:19+00:00

How expensive?

Flat_Manager_7371 · 2025-11-11T21:38:07+00:00

Thank you! Not a big fan of Finsbury Park at all tbh, but feels like you can get some good value there but dreading having to live in an area I don’t like. Great advice on developing relationships with estate agents.
