You do the math and you’re like, “Okay, well, an advisor can handle about 100 clients, an associate advisor can help with some of those clients, you can leverage maybe an associate advisor with a couple of advisors, but there’s a capacity limit for each of the roles.” Is it at 1.5%?

I’m good at math and science and you know, I always had an idea what go into business, but I felt that electrical engineering would be a good foundation.

Sander Gerber : Well, actually I was good at math. Because if you don’t include every single data point, then in the matrix math you have a divide by zero issue. So it’s 10 to one, 20 to one, whatever the precisely the leverage they’re using. What was the career plan? I don’t have an MBA from Wharton.

But plenty of valuation measures, it has no applicability for price-to-sales.

And I, and I really like the application of math and statistics and computer science to markets. You learn the math that can help you with, with market making operations.
