How to Be a Research Assistant

I was investing like the minute I was adult legal, I was picking stocks go crazy. And then of course, finished graduating and got into the PhD program at University of Chicago. So basically punted on all that and just went back to grinding out manual labor type job again. Then took a sabbatical and joined the Marines in 04 and just did my four years there. But then came back and finished the PhD and graduated there in 2010.
