She is doing very well for herself; I saw her drop $400 on a bottle of wine when I last visited her. And she didn't even study business; she knew nothing about investments when she got hired but she did have a Stanford degree and that was enough to land her the position.

Sorry, my little anecdote has added nothing to the conversation except to show that there are sweet jobs in the hedge fund market.
Hardly, now I'm aroused!!
