Exit Strategy

I've got a job interview Monday. It's an opportunity in the exciting world of hedge funds.

Hedge funds invest in higher risk securities than traditional mutual funds. They get their name, "hedge," because they hedge their bets by doing a lot of side trading, short selling, and other "exciting" stuff to reduce the risk of loss.

It's the fastest growing type of mutual fund in the business, everyone is looking to staff quickly expanding groups.

And the starting salary is a five percent increase over my current salary, plus bonus.

Hoo-ah.
