You know what a consultant is don't you Magician? It's a guy that asks to borrow your watch to tell you what time it is.
Of course, being a magician, you can probably get the watch off their wrist without them knowing it!

 

Congratulations - you must be elated! Good luck with it all. Let me know if you need an engineer some time.

 

OMG that is HILARIOUS!

And good luck to you!

Thanks for all the encouraging comments and support.

The only thing that would make it any better is if each of you said, "Hey! My company could certainly use some training / consulting in risk management!"

 

Congrats.

I have considered starting a company if the medium term with some of my MBA friends in finance/IT consulting; specifically in how to use the latter in the former.

Right now, I'm basically an internal consultant in my company. My job is to build a computer model for our nearly $1B annual operating plan. If I pull this off, I'll be golden for a while. I like doing it because it is low stress; everyone else faces constant deadlines and busy-work. My computer science coursework has been more an advantage as a financial analyst than my MBA has been honestly.

 

Congrats, PM me your info if you wish, odds are I could refer some work your way in the future.
