<p>I apologize for sounding like an ignoramus. I was just peeved at the fact that my extremely hard work will not get me into a top 20 school undergrad and I hastily had commented back without analyzing what I had been saying. </p>
<p>Anyway, I have not won a national competition but I got a request to be an intern at Goldman Sachs and J.P Morgan (I took the the offer from Goldman.) and I helped some associates with managing cash flow. I also gave advice to a trader on a few stocks and it brought him 50K (which I sadly did not take credit for from my supervisor when I interned)</p>
<p>And I am not rich. Or at least I don’t consider myself to be… 400,000 a year combined between both parents is not rich to me. Someone who saves and invests and has his money work for him/herself, is. But I digress.</p>
