hi,
I am currently working as a technology consultant in a bank.
Been consulting for a few years now n i get paid around 140k.
im quite interested in pursuing MFE but then from the figures published I can see that I might end up earning much lesser as a quant immediately after graduating.Given that I am a product consultant my current experience would not mean much anyway so I might take a pay cut to start off.Taking all this into account,I was just curious if it would be worthwhile for me to pursue MFE.
I just want to know the risks if I do take the plunge.What are the career prospects say over a 5 year period for an average quant . All I get to hear from people I know are very high numbers which I suppose might be exception than the rule.
Please advise.
Vladimir
