From D-Student with Zero Experience To Trading At Goldman Sachs: Weston Nakamura’s Story

From my presentation to the investment club at Temple University Japan Campus on March 28, 2024.


  • Contingency Planning: my “religion” for markets, trading, & careers (risk management)
  • My Background: Bottom academics, no institutional experience, no markets knowledge, move to Tokyo with nothing → Goldman futures trading desk → Jefferies equity sales
  • Trading Markets: Learn about YOURSELF WITHIN MARKETS (& not markets themselves). Pay market tuition & never take a market loss. BIG WINS are produced by: Luck + Prioritize focus, effort & intended mindset upon mitigating BIG LOSSES + Luck
  • Career Commentary: Preparing for the Coming Crisis of Major Widespread & Permanent Job Destruction from Disruption - the risk of specialization, expertise & experience. Contingency Planning.
  • Q&A: Advantage of NOT being Ivy League.

A big thank you to the investment club at Temple University Japan!
