Where the Jobs Are: Wealth Management

To you Millennials and Gen Xers, the Baby Boomers may be a pain, but they will have plenty of assets to manage. And there are some nice jobs to be had managing them!

Josee Rose reports in today's (September 24, 2007) Wall Street Journal that "Turbulence in the mortgage and credit markets has darkened the outlook for Wall Street's jobs machine, but wealth and asset management are proving to be bright spots.

In the midst of talk about lower bonuses, possible layoffs and a likely drop in employment within the financial-services industry, firms continue to expand their asset- and wealth-management units. Investment options are exploding, and companies are searching for employees whose understanding of money management goes beyond stocks and bonds."
