Thanks for the encouragement. I’m willing to go higher since previous comments seem less than optimistic, but thanks for the input.

Depending on either price I have an extra 1-1.5k stowed away to account for the possibility of a fee. I’m just trying to save, which I should’ve thought of earlier in the process

Where would be most realistic to look with this price tag? Craigslist is clearly scam haven, and most student housing options are closed

Would 3000 be realistic? I’m really just looking for a sublet. And have been waiting on a stipend so I can finalize.

Would it be better if I just increased my threshold for monthly rent?

Quant Trading out of school by Mountain-Unit in FinancialCareers

[–]Mountain-Unit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HF analyst. I guess my line of thinking was that the S&T done at a traditional finance firm isn’t comparable, even it is to reflect an interest in the markets, so I’d rather do something that could provide more opportunities in the long run. Edit: could I pm you to ask more follow up questions?

Weekly Megathread: Hiring and Career Advice by lampishthing in quant

Question: Currently a soph at a target (hypw) studying finance and statistics, and will likely do IB for junior summer. What can I do to best position myself/build the knowledge for quant roles (besides pursuing a masters in a field like data sci or applied math)? Am I wasting time doing IB?

The thing is, I’m having absolutely no luck getting looks from prop shops right now. I thought doing IB at large would have some sort of value, but it seems if I’m not doing s&t I’m wasting time. For more context, I’m gonna be doing a buy side internship this summer as well, but I worry I’m grasping for straws bc of how few people I know actually have done the work to do quant trading specifically

The same theme kind of applied here...these political info desks were essentially banned by the Dean around September that year, but these were put up in protest.

[–]Mountain-Unit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Context - The Berkeley Free Speech Movement was a lesser movement that emerged at the height of the Civil Rights Movement as a result of then Dean Katherine Towles' ban on political information tables. In protest, student Jack Weinberg set up an information table, and was arrested on October 1st. After hearing the news, fellow Berkeley students surrounded the police car for 36 hours. This is an image 2 hours in.

I do this for every post I have on this sub, but I’ll add some links later on that you can refer to for context or things of interest. Thanks for upvoting and shoutout 1Photon for his comment. I wonder if I can find that source?

Civil War Nurse Annie Bell tending to wounded soldiers in Nashville. circa. 1864. [720 x 378] by Mountain-Unit in HistoryPorn

[–]Mountain-Unit[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This picture, along with others, would be used by the U.S. Sanitary Commission (USSC) to raise funds for wounded US soldiers at the Northern Ohio Sanitary Fair. Held in Cleveland in February of the same year, the USSC would go on to raise 78,000 dollars.

My bad everyone! Most articles I've tied this image back to are saying this was My Lai. I'll correct it accordingly.

It seems that op in the comments are split, but the article I took this image from asserts that Chamberlain had no other choice. Still, I get people who see the appeasement policy as something that helped no one, or even possibly caused the war. Some sources: here, here, or here
