#8: Studying 24/7 and social sacrifice increase humor skills significantly--or at least it makes you think you're funnier because you are now your own BFF. Ha jk, another great vid, thanks AJ.
Point 6 I couldn’t agree with more. I was impressed with my own ability of how much content I taught myself, sat through, persevered while studying. I just passed the level 1 exam and I felt relieved but also incredibly satisfied with all the effort I put in
Great video thanks for sharing! I disagree with that last one. For me studying created an unbreakable discipline that allowed me to workout, eat healthier and sleep better than ever before. Don’t think I could have passed by not taking care of myself in the ways you mentioned.

Hi guys, I just passed level 1 and I’m considering two options of what two do next: 1. Enroll level 2 for November 2021 or, 2. Taking a 6 month course about financial structured products. I’d appreciate your thoughts on this, I’ve heard that CFA level 2 has the most difficult part of derivatives and the course I mentioned contains a lot of derivatives, thanks in advance guys. Btw I’m an Actuary
I'm still studying for the Lvl 1 so take my advice with a grain of unearned salt...I think it's best to just go for the Lvl 2. Worst-case-scenario is that you might be a bit unprepared for 1 aspect of the exam, which is fine. You can still pass I think it's best to just get the exam over with. The CFA is a long journey, I wouldn't wanna make it longer
Well done AJ. BUT that last point though. How can a sedentary life style improve your body? If you read till late in the night and feed on junks, you grow pot-belly, not muscles. Or is there something else you're saying that I didn't get?
@@straighttalks-ajsrmek323 oh. You sounded so serious AJ. Please don't be a comedian. You will joke about poison and someone will take you seriously. Because everyone receives you as a serious guy.... lol. You know you're bad at joking when you have to say it's a joke... 😆🤣😂. I often find myself in such situations. But, bro you're definitely going places bro Keep it up.
I will like to know, if you have the CFA qualification, how many levels of the CPA USA can you be exempted from? What waivers do you have if u want to do the CPA
@AJ The sarcasm was funny at the end but kinda decreases the power of the other points Are the other points also exaggerated with sarcasm or only the last thing was sarcasm?
I am planning to pursue CFA after a year probably. I am in the final year of CA which is like a CPA in India. How many months does it take to clear all levels, if I clear each level regularly? Can I complete it in 18 months as suggested in various articles on the internet?
Hi...great video...but I'm quite confident that US CPA does not provide any exemptions if you are a US CFA...could you please recheck this fact that let us know...thank you
Currently almost done with the CPA and I've never heard of educational requirements being waived for being a Charter holder. Could you please point me in the right direction as to where you saw that?
I have career in aviation only working as flight attendant. Currently I study finance and I'm aiming to do CFA later. I've just begin everything from zero. I'm 23 now, I just want to shift my career so bad. Do you mind to help me find out what is the best first job in finance as freshman (soon) ? Or shall I stay in the Aviation company and just move to office to financial department and stop flying. Thank you :)
I find Mark Meldrum really helpful he goes through every learning outcome statement in his videos and does all of the end of chapter questions as well. IFT high yield course is also great for doing level I if you have a undergrad in finance/accounting or have some background in the topics from university.
You can’t even sit for level 2 until you have a bachelors and you can’t become a fully fledged charter holder until you have 4 years of related work experience in the field.
Sub 3:45 for the 1600m... False, that's simply a lie. And if you meant 3:45 for 1500... I'm calling bs. And did you mean 5000m when you said 1600...? A 15 minute 1600 is slower than walking...

Hoping to bench 5 plates and run a sub 2-hour marathon after I pass my CFA exams, don't even need a job..

Each time I see your videos I get motivated
Great video sir
I agree with all the seven but I cannot agree more about numbers 6&7 great stuff 👌
Great video! I totally with benefit no. 6 and no. 7 💯
Lol you had me for a split second
Registered for Nov level 1 exam just for number 7 💪🏽💪🏽
After passing the Level 1, junior guys in my team were like fireflies around me :D A lot of work but glad that I made it and still studying
Hey AJ. This video motivated me so much. Really happy to be a subscriber to your channel. Thank You :)
A very important thing he said, it helps us push ourselves to the limits!
Thanks for mentioning our conversation AJ!
No problem, Gregory. I'll be happy to link or post the podcast as well!

Beautiful video

The final part I think is incorrect. How seating on a chair for 10 hours a day is better for your health than sitting 8 hours
CPA did not bring enough increase in earnings so CFA seems better to me.
No Short Cuts ... Just Study Hard.... Learn something NEW
Money Talks... CFA Money Yells
@AJ The sarcasm was funny at the end but kinda decreases the power of the other points Are the other points also exaggerated with sarcasm or only the last thing was sarcasm?
Hahaha the photoshop at the end, I’m dead
Subscribed 😂😂😂
Today is cfa level 1 results
Very well said but didn't really connect with the last point
How do you feel about the CFA for Private Equity and Venture Capital? Also, have you ever considered the CAIA certification?
It can be helpful for PE but not nearly as helpful as a good IB background. I don't know much about CFAs working in VC but again it couldn't hurt.
I am planning to pursue CFA after a year probably. I am in the final year of CA which is like a CPA in India. How many months does it take to clear all levels, if I clear each level regularly? Can I complete it in 18 months as suggested in various articles on the internet?
Yup in 18 months . If you can clear CA , CFA should be easy.

Hi...great video...but I'm quite confident that US CPA does not provide any exemptions if you are a US CFA...could you please recheck this fact that let us know...thank you
No it is that the CFP lets you skip its education requirements if you are already a CPA.
are you gonna do a video on the very high MPS for level 1 in Fed 2021? Reading on reddit, folks are angry
I did one on this! Called the CFA exams are getting easier.
@@straighttalks-ajsrmek323 thanks! Must have missed it.
Currently almost done with the CPA and I've never heard of educational requirements being waived for being a Charter holder. Could you please point me in the right direction as to where you saw that?
I meant to say the CFP waives its requirements if you are a CPA already.
“benching 300 kg” part is such a joke 😂
Does the CFA get you access to better job markets ? (ie different country)
People who I have spoken to internationally say yes.
I have career in aviation only working as flight attendant. Currently I study finance and I'm aiming to do CFA later. I've just begin everything from zero. I'm 23 now, I just want to shift my career so bad. Do you mind to help me find out what is the best first job in finance as freshman (soon) ? Or shall I stay in the Aviation company and just move to office to financial department and stop flying. Thank you :)
I think you should try to get an entry level position in whatever sector within finance you might want to work in.
Alright thank you for the answer :))
What are the best study material for more better preparation for CFA exams ?
I think Wiley was great for me.
@@straighttalks-ajsrmek323 but what about CFA material...is it fine ?
@@dakshpreetkaur2248 Yes especially their practice questions.
I find Mark Meldrum really helpful he goes through every learning outcome statement in his videos and does all of the end of chapter questions as well. IFT high yield course is also great for doing level I if you have a undergrad in finance/accounting or have some background in the topics from university.
I'm in my first year at college . I want to be CFA charter holder so can i do it in the Next 3 years or it just so hard?
I'm pretty sure you can't sign up for L2 or L3 if you are still in college.
You can’t even sit for level 2 until you have a bachelors and you can’t become a fully fledged charter holder until you have 4 years of related work experience in the field.
Are the exams mostly held on a Saturday?
Not anymore. Now you can do it any day of the week.
I’m a senior I wanna study for level one for may 2022
Is it advisable
@@ohveeo7968 If you want to pursue the CFA program, then studying for L1 during university is perfectly fine!
The last point must be a joke, hahha
for those that didn't get it, the last point is a joke
500Ibs bench AJ?
🙃🙂
Easily.
great advise on all but c'mon LMFAO, lets not get too cocky with the "I can bench press 500 pounds"
Sorry, I meant to say 500 kg.
lol great photo

is cfa a phd level education (if ive heard right)??
No its not.
