Thank you, Jon. I have heard similar comments before. It's really frustrating to know that something is so horrible, yet culture allows it to stay in place.

Thank you, Jon. I have heard similar comments before. It's really frustrating to know that something is so horrible, yet culture allows it to stay in place. I wish I was naive and believed that I could do this by myself in my free time. Unfortunately, I have worked in the industry long enough to know that the odds are severely stacked against me. I, however, am adamant about risk management, and would like to crack this space open.
- AznHisoka 14y agoby adamant, do you mean passionate, or want to make lots of money?
- BrentRitterbeck 14y agoAdamant as in passionate. This needs an explanation. My father will never be able to retire. What funds he did set aside were slowly used up when he was unemployed. He lost his job at the height of the financial crisis. Now, the root cause of the financial crisis has been, and continues to be, hotly debated; however, I side with the people who claim risk was poorly understood, and as a result, poorly measured. My involvement with risk management is directly linked to what I have seen my father experience. I hope that clears things up.
