Never in my life I thought I’d see a guy with that haircut talk about treasury bonds

[@ZhynaAU]

bonds up bands up $$$$

[@jordanaladaxonou1452]

This is racist...period

[@yupimonaboat]

@@jordanaladaxonou1452 what are you implying pal

[@SharkAcademy]

Racist against who? You know he’s not black right? Asians? What if I say I never thought a country music singer would be talking about treasuries, does that make me racist?

[@hanslim4031]

@@yupimonaboat it does seem a little racist though, as braids are from black culture, and you saying that you never see anyone with braids talk about treasury bonds may imply some racism there.

[@imhellag]

Dude this guy has one of the most impressive resumes I've ever seen

[@januariopinto_]

💯! 😆

[@louiss146]

Kaido seems really down to earth.

[@Red-yq6nc]

You mean THE EMPEROR OF HTE SEAS KAIDO SAMA

[@pikakac2441]

Holy sh*t! I went to a math camp with this kid almost 10 years ago. While most people at the camp ended up working in the STEM field, he was not the only one that took a nontraditional path.

[@JeremyJohnson413]

Wow, I went in expecting to dislike the rapper and left liking the rapper and disliking the other guy..

[@adamlewis4736]

Why? I keep seeing comments by people that don’t understand the content.

[@launch_0147]

Adam Lewis he’s kidding

[@jonathanvasquez1312]

yeah, Joma was a bit patronizing with his comments

[@Ne3zyTV]

it's an artist not a rapper:)

[@JossinJax]

@@jonathanvasquez1312 I thought so, too.

[@SubterraneanChick]

My favorite people in life are walking contradictions-smart, independent, "masters of many," constantly evolving, flat out winning at life. Kaido Kid fits the bill. Quirky, self-reliant && not afraid to live outside the lost herd of followers and trend trackers.

[@raymcmahan5080]

I think this is part of the advantage to what may be diagnosed as ADHD these days. Just being open to new experiences because the old ones get boring too fast.

[@juanmiguelnieto1561]

100%

[@southernstar1346]

He's quite literally living his life to the fullest, mad respect for him.

[@aaron___6014]

This was an awkward interview and video, and it wasn't because of Kaido Kid.

[@reservoirman]

agreed... Joma mad annoying, here for the interesting guest only

[@daveman5933]

It’s his interview style. I think he’s more savage/ very up front even bashing guest because it gets them to break character.

[@rahulvadlakonda7509]

this definitely shows us not to judge people by their appearance. great video joma!

[@benjaminmeier8300]

Why not? It just shows again that asians are good in math.

A real rapper who actually went to Havard.

[@ianchui]

aw man, this is such a fun podcast to watch, kaido seems super into it, esp around 6:20. cool person to interview! keep it up joma!!

[@ashtrdvhjhedd]

Harvard, Citadel, Jump Trading?? Damn the talent level on this channel is getting ridiculous! At first it was just a bunch of full stack devs/data scientists, now Joma's bringing in quants from Ivy Leagues. Are you bringing in tech CEOs next?

[@TheJFMR]

Elemental Hero hahahaha he is going to bring Larry Page or Mark zuckerberg next

[@zoellazayce6796]

"So.. I heard you get paid $1 a year, how do you live with that?"

They all internships chill

[@junuhunuproductions]

This was a very cool video. An Artist and Joma just chillin'

[@CarlosOrtiz-ht6rn]

You're awesome man! Thank you for making these highly informative interviews 👍

[@inchinaxp8663]

I love it. This dude is so interesting. If you look at him you'd never think he went to Harvard or works at KZbin but that just shows our own narrow mindedness. Thanks for the sick content Joma.

[@metalmadness90000]

@Kay Flip you're talking literal bullshit lmao

[@551223]

This definitely gives me a lot of hope and encouragement that even as a quant there’s “unconventional “ people in the industry. I myself don’t seem like an engineer which discourages me to pursue that field but this pushes me a lot more

[@GunnerJayx]

Man this is so dope

[@kevincai8920]

Really cool interview. You should post more content like this.

[@prophetaspiehuga3482]

His next song will be called "Hit the Quant"

[@jorgezepeda2461]

The interviewer is really jealous of his guest. Hilarious to watch.

[@jorgezepeda2461]

Skulltruck08 yes, porque?

[@fauxz3782]

I know right, was quite disgusting whilst the guest remained positive.

[@Asign2012]

Interviewer was a super bad sport (just started watching)

[@maxsimes]

how do you notice that? some time stamps?

[@markmonfort29]

Really do not see how you come to that conclusion...

[@AkritiBhat]

whenever i feel like settling for my current job, Joma's videos are there to motivate to study

[@haha-eg8fj]

I really like this series. It gives a lot of insight in different careers and different personalities.

[@jakenikol5558]

Love these cool interviews!

[@TechLead]

Hey, kid. Get back on the "golden path". It's only $19.95 USD, limited time only.

[@jomakaze]

Or be a member of Joma Tech for $4.95!

[@Spedfree]

Lol seriously

[@Vertson]

TechLead getting that free ad space!

[@FG-qs8uj]

I can't find the link

[@maximtheconqueror]

He is probably trolling because he probably makes a lot of cash from that single course.

[@tenzin8773]

Kaido Kid seems like a humble dude. I respect that!

[@644golf]

This was great more interviews!

[@hyperfappers1423]

Great video Jarvis

[@SuperAluminum]

Joma, your face, your words, your smile, everything looks so bitter

[@xNamsu]

I know I'm preaching to the choir here by saying this considering that this is Joma's channel, BUT I really feel like Joma is very "thin" in his knowledge of Software Engineering/Data Science. I would bet money that he just barely slipped in to Facebook and more than likely is the type of person who exaggerated their resume. Every time he sits down with someone who is clearly more well versed then he is, its painfully obvious. You can see it in his body language, his inability to have an in-depth conversation, and his demeanor. Theres something that just isn't right about Joma, not sure what it is.

[@user-ti9zc1xv2b]

He is jealous of people higher than him, he even admitted it. Hope he'll someday lose that loser mindset, lol.

[@JinkProject]

like everyone else, he doesn't like it when people are better than him at something. we are all like that. i think all of you guys posting to this comment are just as bitter. chill out.

[@user-ti9zc1xv2b]

Lol you are projecting too much here, no, not everyone else is like that, in fact, it's only you and him... arrogance and jealousy will bite him very hard soon.

[@JinkProject]

Bader Bouta bitter bitter bitter. What is your deal?

[@EngineeredTruth]

that ad break is fucking hilarious

[@SR-mv2mf]

Hmm nice interview. It was good to know about the motivations for work here. I can understand how it can be soul draining to work purely for money.

[@39viole]

Really enjoyed this video! More collabs with Kaido pls. :D

[@chaiennetucker6904]

I really appreciate kaido!! Im glad he came on your channel.

[@apoozeo1715]

[@heidiguo977]

omgg KAIDO actually took the time to look up his individual paychecks and explained so patiently😂 how cute

[@HeyDanHay]

@Joma I am becoming a big fan of yours dude! Love the content and youre pushing a great niche. Your content is helping me get to a level where I want to begin posting my own videos (have wanted to for a few years, just need to make that leap). I am currently working in finance in portfolio management. I just found out about business analytics, almost super similar to data science/data analytics. I was wondering if you could do a video on maybe someone who has a business analytics role in the future?

[@terenterenteren8301]

Loved this video.

[@EngineeredTruth]

Did not expect KZbin to let his style fly. Talk about a unique guy. I wanna meet him

[@shamarg6]

Yeezus Christ do you guys actually think people who listen to hip hop don't work in Tech or Finance??

[@liftingisfun2350]

You realize Google basically encourages people to look like they're brimming with personality

[@MrWolfgangWeiss]

To be fair, asking to derive the Black Scholes pde has come up in some interviews I have had., I would find it to be a basic question if you are applying as a quant researcher.

[@lugia970]

Cool interview. Non traditional background quant is really interesting!

[@exceljedi6266]

[@ralphruiz2120]

YOOOO Joma, I see your videos all the time love them. I just wanted to know are there different types of data scientists? Like is there a machine learning data scientist, spatial data scientist, or is there just a data scientist.

sick!

[@ramsesp5009]

THIS DUDE IS DOPE ASF!

[@xuyifei7288]

great video man

[@the25thbam92]

kaido is dope. I think there was more you guys could've gotten into outside of the professional side of things. little bit more of otaku, more of hip hop, trends in pop culture (and maybe how that influences the professional side of things lol)

[@ijonel906]

The transition from slang to normal talking was like wow

[@JohnZhu1988]

i dunno how i arrived at this page, but i think this is pretty funny. its cool that this guy followed his passion and try new things.

[@fndfgbberb]

I love how Joma asks questions. Sounds likes he's asking for himself so he can go take the interview!

[@naowalplayzgames6218]

these guys literally sound like homies, amazing!

[@YoungseokHwang]

Hey Joma! love your videos from Korea. Found any portion of youtube demographic stats from Korea?

[@swisstrader]

I don’t get it. Interviewer starts out interview trying to tear the guy down. The guy is definitely the real deal. He didn’t do his DD prior to the interview??

[@adamlewis4736]

It’s a joke lmao. Chill, watch some of his other videos.

[@Shaneaustrie]
