Buy high sell low

>>17681473
basically this. there has been no practical reason for these fags to be on the trading floor since computers gutted the open outcry market.

>>17681473
NYSE floor specialists are basically there for cameras to take pictures of them.

In the olden days they would make markets (buying at bid and selling at ask) for the pit traders, but there's no pit traders anymore and these guys barely do anything.

>>17681473
That and play both sides of the market, providing liquidity for everyone and making money for their insanely rich clients.

>>17681473
they just watch the market, and yes they are only used for stock photos but the stock market as a whole is billions of traders across the world on their computers/offices buying and selling. Even autistic neets on /biz/ are part of this trading.

What do all white collar wagies do really?
I get the accountants and the marketing teams but what about the rest.

ya

>>17681473
Not sure but I do know that you don’t see that haircut very often.

>>17681473
Yes

This is now a Tuchman thread.

>>17681473
These guys do fuck all. All your real wallstreet brokers and traders sit on the phone all day in places that look like the backrooms.

>>17681757
Honk Honk

How do I become a wall street model?

>>17681713
Depends on the job. I've read so many stories of people only working like 3 hours in an 8 hour day it's ridiculous. Blue collar good luck getting away with that.

>>17681713
Not falling for your basic ass redditnigger tier bait.

>>17681844
Why do they need to be on the phone?

>>17682689
truth
they're basically just monkeys to fill in empty space and make companies look big with "thousands of employees", you could gut 50% of them and it wouldn't have any impact on performance

They chat to each other and trade insider secrets.

>>17681473
I've seen this dude in particular like a dozen times.

It's the place where all the kikes that look smart but aren't really smart are sent. Piss easy job they landed through their Jewish genes.

>>17683273
What a disgusting little Jew
YUCK

>>17681713
>marketing

I have yet to meet a marketer that isn't fucking braindead

>>17683489
but that's actually what makes them good at their job. A person of average intelligence is dull, and half the people are dumber than that. More importantly, the lower IQ you are the more susceptible you are to advertisements and marketing. Being a braindead normie is the perfect intelligence level to market things towards other braindead normies

>>17683273
literally just acting, kek

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Tuchman
seems like he does actually trade, and the comment about him not owning any stocks is because he is trading other peoples money and then technically doesn't own any stocks himself.

>>17682689
i do 45 minutes of work a day max, in my 8 hour day

Anyone got photos of the bald guy with the short beard who often does the facepalm pose

He's the one I see the most

>>17681473
You know how much it costs to get on the floor?
You know the floors a meme and died in like 2002?

>>17683273
That's some industrial strength ONIONS right there

>>17684003
This Peter guy would make a good wojak template, actually

What do you do for work? Is it comfy?

>>17683273
If only you knew how honked things really are.

>>17682679
((()))

>>17682679
1. Be jewish

>>17682689

its better to have work than to sit there pretending to be busy for 8 hours

>>17681473
>So...what exactly do these guys do on wallstreet? Just play as models doing reaction faces for the media?
They do pretty much the same shit we do.
Just with fewer pink wojacks.

There is no secret sauce otherwise every two bit day trader with two million would retire at 50 with 10 billion in the bank.

KEK that guy even looks like Boomer Heihachi Mishima

>>17681679
EZ with other peoples money.

>>17682689
I've done both and you definitely can work less than 3 hours a day in construction. A lot of hurry up an wait. Waiting on parts. Waiting on equipment.

Military too you sit around a fuck ton. Ironically, the grindiest jobs were you are always working are min wage warehouse picker jobs or restaurants.

>>17681473
Trading floors are basically like Vietnam war vet get-togethers where you do a photo op with geriatrics who regularly piss and shit themselves and forget who their family members are wearing their old uniform. It doesn't serve a purpose besides making you look good and making grandpa feel like he isn't completely worthless (he is)

>>17685468
I wish I was born in the US so that I could be an officer
It sounds so comfy. It's a shame soldiers here are paid like shit

>>17685104
lamo fuck that, I wish I could get a job where I get paid for 8h to sit at a desk doing jack shit
> t. been working construction outside in the rain/mud/snow for +10 yeras

>>17681473
professional larpers like other boomer jobs like train conductors and concierges. no one has the heart to tell them to stop
