Fall 2019 - Prof Ross is a beast. He managed $5b worth early on his career and then continued to grow as a personal and business professional and now he works at BoA managing $1.5b. The class is amazing and he breaks down the financial markets and everything in the global economy you need to know. He also talks a lot of professional development, delving into the soft-skills like interviews, emails, etc. He continually emphasizes and encourages that he wants students to follow their passion and not be led by the feeling of "oh I have to do this so I can achieve X". Overall, an amazing class that I would take a million times over.
