  1. Interview for experienced hires

    I am curious as to what the quant denizens have to say about something I have been munching over for a while. I am experienced commodities quant and I know my stuff very deep. So, deep that I have forgotten all the graduate school brain teasers and I have no interest in wasting time reading it...
  2. Option intrinsic value using Monte Carlo

    I am struggling with this new concept of Monte Carlo Simulation based option valuation. For testing I want to price options on a stock which follows GBM. For illustration, I have considered 2 time steps and 3 paths. Time1: 12, 14, 13 Time2: 17, 14, 10 So, average price for...
  3. America's century is over

    Why? They can't tolerate socialists? And yes by the way there are 6 billion people on earth and if 1000 of them do not want to live in US who cares.
  4. America's century is over

    . But, Mr. Wolf did you already leave US to start a new life in East Europe, Iran or Africa?
  5. America's century is over

    Apparently here there are 2 sides. American and anti-American. I am going to go with the winner, the US, Japan, Europe (currently having some cough symptoms). You guys can stay on the side of Mexico, Russia, Iran, N. Korea, Nigeria, Yemen, etc and hope that in left 50 years of your life they...
  6. America's century is over

    What do you think: Chinese and Indian model are Russian? Are you living in some kind of hole where you only have access to socialist.org, QN and some Russian newspaper? Go to Russian, be anti-Russian and then you will realize what witch hunt is. Russians will make sure that you do not see the...
  7. America's century is over

    Every morning Bigbadwolf starts with a socialist newspaper (socialist.org??? something like that, he posted an article once from that website) looking for any article which is anti-American/capitalist. Then he would go on to search for the remotest of articles on some Russian newspaper decrying...
  8. US College closes oversea MBA program due to rampant cheating

    Blanket statements like these based on "experience" just shows immaturity in my opinion. I come here to enrich myself from education and experience of people all over the world and this is what I get to read. Should we allow these racist rants on an educational forum like this? How was...
  9. UCB MFE UCB MFE numbers for 2010 - Fake and Unethical?

    There are a couple of points I would like to make here: (1) From my perspective your arguments are as good as the arguments of original poster of the UCB fake salary article. He talked from his experience and you talk from yours. My lesson from this thread is not that UCB is 100% fake as...
  10. UCB MFE UCB MFE numbers for 2010 - Fake and Unethical?

    ....lol....I can't believe a simple statement/question like that would make someone as pissed.
  11. UCB MFE UCB MFE numbers for 2010 - Fake and Unethical?

    3 months after graduation still unemployed, you claim to have offers >100k from BB and IBs but not accepting it....sounds too good to be true.....or is it that I am too naive in finance field?
  12. UCB MFE UCB MFE numbers for 2010 - Fake and Unethical?

    I do not understand why people do not encourage current students to come out and speak the truth about the program they are attending, instead of bashing them for speaking up. I guess this is the reason that people do not want to come out in open and we are left wondering about the veracity of...
  13. Sharing admission essays

    I have gotten through into all top schools for MFE. So, some of my friends have started asking me for my essays. My question is: (1) Is it okay to share my admission essays? I am sure they are going to copy from my essay. If they do, will I be in trouble? (Off-course they will, for...
  14. Lying on your CV

    Reminds me of a guy I used to work with at my last job originally from Romania who would always blame the financial engineers and richer people for making money and creating problems for the rest of the world. On street while I admired expensive cars he would always sneer at them. All he wanted...
  15. 2009 Quantnet Ranking of Financial Engineering (MFE), Quantitative Finance Programs

    Duh! Why won't CMU and Princeton show this ranking on their website? I will see the strength of your ranking if UCB, NYU, Cornell breeds put your ranking on their website. They won't as they know this ranking is bogus. Common since when did community colleges start to stand in the same line as...
