Hello Jason Voss,

I first want to say that this post has been amazing. I can see the effort and passion you put into it.
So Jason i really would your advice and learn a thing or two. I really want to become a analyst or something similar related to investments. Im 18 and left school with poor academic qualifications which i regret since i didnt put much effort into.
I currently am a student learning engineering but I have no experience or qualifications you would usually see with most analysts. is there any way i can still ride the path to become a analyst without studyinga degree and getting a cfa or something?

I have been managing a virtual portofolio for half a year and that is about as much experience that I have. I also have read a couple of books on investing. Grahams book definately have changed me most.
Also you mentioned looking for a mentor. How would i go about this?

Sorry if im being imprudent

Thank you Jason

Regards,

Martin
