Hi I’m Tyler, a retired Hedge Fund quant and Ivy League alum. This channel is about alternative thinking and alternative living. In particular, it explores the intersection between travel, personal finance, and living a meaningful life (travel hacks, money hacks, and life hacks we can derive from thinking outside of the box). — What’s a Quant? Search in YouTube for “That’s my Quant” and Ryan Gosling explains it to you. Business inquiries: [email protected]

Video Description
I outline my journey into the secretive world of proprietary trading and the hedge fund space, where compensation figures and bonuses are explosive and make all other industries seem sleepy and boring. I go over the cultural nuances of working on “Wall Street” and ultimately why I preferred it over other industries in my decision to pursue early retirement.
