I don't know your background but strong math is needed as a quant.And depending on where you live you may need to relocate for a MFE or even a job in finance anyway.While you shouldn't pursue a PhD for the sole purpose/plan of becoming a quant, many PhD programs fully fund their students.Working while you prepare for a MFE or quant job is not a bad option, but from my limited understanding the actuarial exams take many years. For some reason I have 5-7 years in my head, hopefully someone else can correct me.
