My question is , to those who work in finance or those who might know, what are my options after i graduate with a masters of finance degree….ive heard about investment banking and i know its very multifacted but is that the only option.i also realize an investment banker has to work a ridiculous amount of hours per week. also, are there any jobs in finance with reasonable hours.

Tasha asked: Why do customers not monitor their own accounts?
Do customers not understand that the nothing automated is going to provide as accurate a balance as the customers personal records?
Why do people get angry when they recieve overdraft fees when it’s THEIR account and THEIR responsiblity?
Why do customers call their banks customer service repeatedly during one day to inquire about “pending transactions?” Do they not know where they spent their money!?!
I love my job, but I REALLY wish that the customers I work with would be more cautious and responsible with thier bank accounts. It’s infuriating some of the questions we’re asked on a daily basis.

Brendan asked:
I’m starting my first day of work at Safeway in Manitoba, and I need to know what banking information I need to bring with me. My boss started talking about it but wasn’t very informative. I know she said that I need my banking number or something, but other than that I have no idea. She needs it because my wages will be direct deposit. Thanks.
I’m only 16 though, so I don’t have any checks.

Sure the Republicans deregulated, but they didn’t deregulate banking?
Is Obama just showing off his sense of humour or is he looking to fool the stupid ignorant people?

Joey asked:
When I go to do my drive up banking and I deal with the teller and send my money and checks in that little bottle and sent it through the tube system, I’ve always wondered how it works! I don’t know if the tube is a gradual turn or if the bottle bends or what, but I’ve always wanted to know. I know it’s kinda stupid, but I’m sorry I just really want to know! Thanks!

saintsgumbo asked:
Do you think it to be fair that the Government is basically hand picking who survives in the banking world by giving certain ones the money. With this money (our money), the bank who gets the payout, buys out the ones who lose.
Does that seem alright to everyone?
Does it feel good to know the government is choosing who will be around later?
No one sees banks as people just the people that are losing their jobs as people….. will this idea spill off into other areas?
