The first month of work

A long long month has finally passed my - my first month of full-employment!
Working in a security investment company is a whole-new experience...but not so good
Waking up at 6 am every morning is so painful @@ --> just like the god-damn military
Well, there is still one thing to be glad --> I got my certificate of security 2!$#%$^
(高業,whatever its English is) today!
No need to stay late in the company ^^~

A transfer from science to finance is really a tough play, but they are not that different after all. Logic is the basis of them, and taking care of all details to deduce hypothesis. However, a big different point is that we make it as carefully as possible in science, while in finance we make prediction as our conclusion (kind of weak for a scientist @@). People do make unreasonable prediction in science, but definitely not as much as in finance. A field of assumption from nowhere --> might be the origin of credit bubble :). Whatever the flaw it has, it is a good experience to have a job like this for my first full-time job, but I am going back to science someday as soon as possible.

The conclusion is --> buying stocks is more of an emotional impulse than rational decision. So don't spend too much time on security analysis, since the price won't be what you thought of!
