Incorrect. Goldman has plenty of traders taking proprietary risk with the firm's money. So do virtually all the other major financial firms.
My advice: pool together a list of everyone you know who is in anyway connected to either the major firms (like goldman) or the hedge fund community. Begin to network with these people and work your way in the door this way.
An MBA helps, but isn't a prerequisite to successful trading. If anything, go for your CFA.
