Private equity sounds like a mechanism that extracts the most amount of value from a business, and transfers that wealth to the few general partners.
Everyone loses - the business, the employees, the local consumers, the tax payers.... except for the general partners
The people you’re claiming don’t benefit wouldn’t have benefited with or without the private equity buyout. The business was failing before private equity came in, they just more efficiently manage the end of the companies life. Most likely allowing most companies to work there longer than they would have been able to do before.

@@tahirisaid2693Exactly! Private equity firms usually target failing businesses that they can turn around
Great video - thanks for the day in the life of a FA @ Tesla. I recently graduated with a Math degree and hoping to get into this field. Quite a pivot, but it's where my post-grad interest lies. Appreciate the insight.
This is fantastic. I'm an old duffer, and we had nothing like the info contained in this video when I was starting my career. Incredibly high-value!!!! 🔥
In love with your videos 💜🌸
Keep shining! ✨
goodness i could never do what you did ! that’s crazy hard work
He went straight to the point!!!
Great to see a day in the life of a FA like myself.
I really enjoyed watching this. You told a story about your life, while simultaneously including your work schedule.
- Future analysts
Thank you so much for this video!!
Great video. My day is similar, looking at moving into FP&A in the future. side note: going back to work after dinner and gym, I could never!
Awesome walkthrough. Most accounts don’t go this in depth so this was super informative.
Loved this video
Nice video, keep them coming!
Will do Kenji! Thanks for the support.
Great stuff. Surprised by the spend approval function as part of your role.
This was helpful
Awesome video!!
I would never be able to be a Financial Analyst. I start at 8:30AM, finish at 4:30PM and I take an hour break at noon and two 15 min breaks throughout the day (morning & afternoon). At 4:30PM I'm already tired of work. lol
What do you work as ?
Good lord - what do you do?! Even the "cushy" jobs in Vermont are 8a-5p...
What do you do for work?
You guys were wondering what I'm doing for work. I'm a pension administration employee in an insurance company. I spend most of my days investigating problems and analyzing death claims for annuity group policies. I'm not really passionate about what i'm doing (my background is in political science) but I'm not complaining because I have a stable permanent job in a business division in important growth (aging population) and I can manage my time the way I want. I also work remotely and I can go work in a coffee shop if I have no meeting. I can do some overtime but very rarely. It used to be a nightmare a few years ago when I was also taking inbound calls from annuitants who were always calling to complaint about where's their money. I was on the brink of a burnout. But I am not facing the client anymore, I'm just analyzing claims and doing more complex tasks while listening to music with my headphones (and I used to do overtime + following a tight call center schedule + not being able to work from a coffee shop). All things considered, I can't complaint even if yes, I am tired of work after 4:30pm. It's the closest to my dream job considering that without my call center experience in an insurance company and the support of a cool manager who always trusted me and offered me training sessions with specialists to eventually get out of the call center and become a full time analyst, I would never be doing this.
Great video! How do you tackle one off high ticket expenditures? So for example if one property had to do a one time refurbish due to hail damage? Now you have one month that is much higher than the rest ... how do you deal with that variance?
Eye opening video
Great video. Are you working with only Excel for data cleaning or using another programming languages such as python etc ?
Besides the awesome details and explanations of the routines, I was just impressed by the video skills and effort. I need to start with learning how to make videos like that! What tools/software you used for this?
love the content 🫡
Very easy schedule. I love it!
Michael, do you feel like Financial analysts typically pertain to a specific personality type? Or do you feel like it varies between highly introverted and extroverted, etc?
He sounds like he was taking the IELTS speaking test lol. Love his accent!
Great video!
Cheers!
Very nice and it has some data entry stuff included right? Looks like a nice schedule. Especially the work from home part.
A bit of data entry, but a lot more data sourcing from the company database and data cleaning. Cheers!
@@careerprinciplesthose are way too many hours 😂. You get 3 day weekend at least? at that rate you're making like min wage 😂
the best never rest! nice work love the content
Appreciate you!
The illustrations are so well done bro! What was your initial career path - did you come from a finance or accounting background and have your CFA or CPA?
Doubtful
he was a fresh college grad
I'm currently looking into getting into the Financial Analyst Field. It has always been a dream of mine to work for Tesla. I have always found everything numbers related easy to come to me, which is what has brought me here. Just wondering if you have any recommendations on where to start on a career with Tesla.
Do you get leave on Saturday Sunday... Do you work during weekends??
Very useful video thanks for inside! Btw do you know if people can land a Financial Analyst job by doing online certificates from Coursera and Udemy and maybe Google Certificates? Or a Master's Degree is a must to get a job in this role?
Cool vid ❤
Nice video
Im confused isn't Tesla in Austin now?
Hey there!
I'm planning to pursue Mba in Finance in Canada, but I'm not 100% sure if I'll be able to do it. Could you please help me to make a wise, rational decision.
did you need a cfa?
looks like fun 🕺🏿
I will be forever grateful to you, you changed my entire life and I will continue to preach on your behalf for the whole world to hear you saved me from huge financial debt with just a small investment, thank you Claudia Jenkins.
I'm surprised that you just mentioned Claudia Jenkins here. I met her at a conference in 2018 and we have been working together ever since.
The very first time we tried, we invested $1400 and after a week, we received $5230. That really helped us a lot to pay up our bills.
You trade with Claudia Jenkins too? Wow that woman has been a blessing to me and my family.
I'm new at this, please how can I reach her?
I was skeptical at first till I decided to try. Its huge returns is awesome. I can't say much
Is FP & A and Financial analyst same
Can you make a video about your Excel files? Would like to see what functions/features you use the most. Congrats on the video, very interesting for a Business Administration grad like me ^^
Cheers Luca! Noted your idea on the most used Excel functions and features.
@@careerprinciples if u link the exercise file u're using that'd be great!
@@careerprinciples What sounds harder to your "ears"? 1. Certified Public Accountant or 2. Masters Degree in Statistics?
Pivot tables likely
Can you do a video on a financial analyst interview?
Noted. More videos incoming!
Brother what are your qualifications?
Hi i want to be a financial analyst but i have no experience about that can you help me
what college did you go to?
Awesome video, so in theory you are a half account haf analyst
Ur headphones on the thumb nail is on backwards.
wow it seemed really tough
Haha yeah, lot's of work and a lot of work exposure
I graduated with a information system degree and I have CFA level 1. What do I need to become a financial analyst?
nothing, this should get u through the door.try applying for analyst jobs
And learn more about excel
Looks like you're in the UK, not the Bay Area?
House is tiny as bay area. Looks like a small uk house.
No one gonna talk about the fact the video says 'Bay Area' whilst he is subscequently walking around UK streets, lol
Not UK streets
@@davidc4408 you sir need glasses
@@breadstick7431 maybe parts are UK but other parts certainly not as can see $ sign on food court outside

FYI - this guy is making 7 figures with stocks and stuff !!! Avergae base for his role - 350k USD and stocks is like 500k per year
Thats director level salary...entry level anaylst probably at 70k base
@@WolfLegends err, this is tesla dude. base is min 180k in california $. Stocks have gone up a lot in last 3 years so maybe he started with a 100k a year equity grant but now that is worth at least 400k a year given the stock has 4X since. So 400+180 = 580k
If Career Principles has million number of fans i am one of them . if Career Principles has ten fans i am one of them. if Career Principles have only one fan and that is me . if Career Principles has no fans, that means i am no more on the earth. if world against the Career Principles , i am against the world.
What degree do you have?
How to become financial analyst
🫡🫡🫡 corporate life not fun 😔
You are working really long hours.
He doesn’t work at Tesla at all, by compliance issue he would otherwise never talk anything about Honda
Full day work 😐☠️
Looks booring
It is. It is the most boring job there is . I worked as an accountant, god I hate it. Switched to tech sales instead
I'm sorry, did you meant to say day in the life of a wage slave in the Bay Area?
cmon dude, you work at Tesla and you are saving money on food ?? cmon stop being cheap
sounds really borings day to day
I would like to know what you studied and how you pursued Financial Data Analysis. I’m in the process of choosing my career; I would like to be an accountant but also want to delve into data analysis. Thanksss for your video 🫶🏻
