Modern finance is literally indistinguishable from maths and tech.

Law isn't a guaranteed way to a high status career anymore, far from it.

Medicine sure. But the initial investment is multiple times that of a tech career, for fairly marginal gains in quality of life (when it isn't actually worse).

Quant finance might be indistinguishable, but that‘s still a small portion of finance. Traditional finance is still way more people-oriented.
