I've had friends who moved into tech recently. They were previously investors and bankers, some moved into quantitative roles like analytics/data science, and product management, and one guy I knew became a software engineer ( caveat - he majored in CompSci in college ).
How did they manage to pivot to analytics/data science and product management? The skills for those roles feel quite different from IB/investing roles. Would be interested in knowing if they had any prior experience in those areas that made the switch possible?
I would be a professor.
One of my favorite professors while I was in college was super young for a college professor (I believe 26-27) he made learning fun as he understood what appealed to us the most.
I admired how helpful he always was and he was always happy to see us all going on and doing great things.
Either that or a porn star.
always have thought about this also, great job, can make an impact and u get summers and winter off
Why not both

I would love to open a small restaurant one day, or even Bed & Breakfast. Can't say I have it all planned, but I've been saving and every now and then I glance at stuff like licenses, regulations, properties... Targeting late 40s perhaps
I'll help you do that, I've been thinking about that too tbh

trying to do something in music - artist/booking/label/management/etc - trying to figure it out right now
Run a lower middle market business.
Psychiatry or therapy. I like helping people and figuring out solutions to problems.
Art - having a gallery or selling some inventory I have.
Director of a training facility with a gym, Muay Thai and BJJ.
I would go back to school and learn enough engineering to be competent enough in the space business. Lot of innovation going on in Manhattan beach. Really enjoy following companies like Relativity and Sierra Space. I am confident space commerce will be a massive creation of value during the 2050s-2100 as we transition to a multi planetary civilization. Space real estate, space logistics, every company will need to pay someone to bring their operations into space in the next 40-60 years.
Deep tech and space tech VC is fascinating but definitely an area where you need to know your stuff or you’ll lose money. Would be difficult to connect with founders if you couldn’t walk the walk with them. I admire funds like Promus Ventures. They do a good newsletter.
If I already had family money and had faith in our institutions I'd 100% be a CIA/MI5 operative
