  1. I question whether she did that or whether the business was inherently great, since she allegedly did not have any experience when taking over the job.

    Why? programmers are in demand. Better paying on average than being a day trader.

    If I were starting over, I would consider a career in software.

    She fired the CEO, promoted someone from the ranks to push for more aggressive growth in order to survive consolidation in the industry. That is what running a company at the top is all about.

    Best of luck to you.

    I envy you guys that have good programming skills. I just completed my Coursera VBA online course and started to write some VBA programs to backtest options like butterflies, spreads, etc. A lot of fun and getting some interesting results. I should have done this years ago.

    @Turveyd has skills not relevant to today's software world. Skills from 5 years ago aren't relevant in today's software world @ironchef

    Hope he has his retirement plan executed.
