From someone who only wants trade and doesn't understand the quant lust, I provide this advise. If you have a Phd and MBA then you should already have the tools you need to sell yourself for just about anything. If you love it then do it but I wouldn't do it for money or a job. You need to get...

Very good points. I will add that my question had nothing to do with MFE, my preference or non preference for maths, or my ability to do maths. My question really stem from my experience in programming and getting somehow "bored" with logic/computation. As per your speculations, I do both enjoy...

Let's refocus, it is obvious I do not have the requisite knowledge. The question is are there any programs that fit my specific requirements? I am thinking that a traditional CS degree will cover most of the topics and underlying.

I can't argue with that. I don't want to do finance though. I want to trade and design trading strategies which I can already do. But, I'd like to have a better understanding of the theory. Few people understand maths anyway.

I've read that C++ is used extensively. However, I think this is a mistake and a legacy of the past. Having coded in C++ 10 years ago at an advanced level, it is really a dated and lower level then needed for anything that is not time critical. Although it benefits from universality. I would...

This is an interesting idea but 100k is not enough. It would need to be 2-10 million dollars. But, the idea is wrong. The problem is not education which is highly valuable. It is that it is not structured where the teachers understand that they work for the students. Nobody gives anyone an...

No, that's not the question. The question is fundamentally can all of mathematics be reduced to set of operations which can be understood by the most basic of logical arguments such as moving something from point a to b, comparing for equality, or performing a basic mathematical operation (which...

My question is can all mathematics be reduced to basic operations such moving, comparison, etc? Are there any mathematics that would offer any other perspective?

My base is calling the market. I do have some quantitative strategies but my mathematics background is very weak with highest achieved @ Pre-Calculus. I'm not sure that an MFE is right for me due to the debt, work, math, etc. I'm looking for programs that are online only and would cater to...
